OMG OMG OMG Oh My God!!!
I can't run NS! I'm freaking out! Like a cold-turkey drug adict!
Ok, so I run steam, that's fine, then I run NS. the NS background pops up, no menu items, my cursor shows the hourglass-of-ultimate-yet-delaying-computer-thinking. after maybe a max of 20 seconds, HL dies and it poops me back to my desktop...
[EDIT] The same thing happens in WorldCraft/VHE/whatever v_v [/EDIT]
Any ideas?
BTW, this just started happening with this recent patch that I DLed through steam today
...stupid steam...
