Counter-Strike doesn't start up..?

[Feweh]

Alright so i can't get counter-strike to start up... steam opens but it takes longer than usual... then i go to open counter-strike and this pops up.

Anyways here's what happened today... i was playng blackmesa and i got timedout and then brought to my desktop with a error message that i didnt pay much attention to, it froze my computer so i turned it off by holding the power button.

 

So about 5 hours later i try and connect and it keeps giving me that, i press Ok and all it does is tries to connect again and pops right back up.

 

No idea what to do searched everywhere, want to avoid re-download due to my download limit already being over.

did you download the game off steam or install from cd?

 

From what I've read you have to delete the gcf files in steamapps folder.

A re-installation seems like the best course of action.

You realise the game can be uninstalled and then downloaded through Steam, right?

This would be your best way to go!

Yes but i have a download limit of 20gigs a month, im at 20 something now... 2 more gigs ontop of that is to much extra cash to dish out.

 

 

And downloading through steam counts.
