Anyone got any idea why HL is now freezing and crashing on shader compiling when I launch? I just updated my GPU Driver which I'm thinking is the issue but idk
Asked this yesterday and spent 5 hours trying to fix it last night but couldn't. It happened since I updated GPU drivers. I tried going back to a previous GPU driver, didn't work. Tried verifying files, didnt work. Tried system scan, didnt work. Tried reinstalling multiple times, didnt work. Tried deleting mods, didnt work. Tried reparing steam folder, didnt work
#Crashing on launch

That seems to be normal (well--'normal'). Just leave it alone while it has its seizure and eats up all of your CPU for about five minutes or so, it'll sort itself out and then launch normally afterwards. Unless your game is actually crashing on its own instead of you force-quitting it; I did that the first time before I learned to just let it cook. If it's CRASHING crashing, then I'm afraid I can't help with that.
It never uses all of my CPU even when I'm playing
I fixed the issue though.
Fixed it using this video on the last step at timestamp 5:31 incase anybody comes across this with the same issue
