This isn't a mapping question, but whenever I turn on HL2 or a mod or something, I locks up and turns off right when the map is almost loaded. When it turns off, it says,
HALF-LIFE 2: hl2.exe -Application Error
The instruction at "0x241f94f7" referenced memory at "0x0e63f41c". The memory could not be "read". Click on OK to terminate the program."
Is there a problem with my computer or something? Or is it a bad update? I don't think I did anything to make the game do this, all I did was change the shotgun skin with one from HL2 beta. Please help!!

Try verifying your game cache, you may have deleted something important

Try verifying your game cache, you may have deleted something important How do you verify your game cache? I don't really know what that means, I'm going to guess it means to refresh important files like .dll files and stuff like that?

It's via Steam. Go to Steam, the "My Games" tab, right click your game and go to "Properties". Select "Local Files" tab and click "Verify integrity of game cashe".

I verified it, it didn't do anything.
EDIT: Ok, I did it twice, and it still didn't do anything D:

Does ti happen for any other resource-heavy games which use a lot of RAM. could be a hardware fault (stuck pin, etc).

any non-steam ones, lol Well, I have the real HL2 beta, that is non-steam, and it works fine, besides the fact it locks up sometimes because horrible errors they made in the beta maps.

Oh, great. Hammer does this now too. AHHHHHH I want to ask somebody at VALVe what the hell is happening, but I went to support and there is no obvious way of doing that, I have to join forums and stuff. Uhhh If anybody knows can they tell me? Or just forget about what I just said and go back to my last comment and help with that? K, thanks.

Does it crash for any map you try to load? If I was in that situation I would reformat with out a moment's notice, but you're not me (Probably).
What's your system's specs?

Yes, it does that with every map, as said before, even the background locks up the game. Reformat? You mean delete all the hl2 files and download them again? And for the systems specs, I can only guess you just mean all that stuff about my RAM, and things like that. Here.

just save stuff you need like save games and maps and stuff you need (see what i did there? ), and bloody delete it all and download it all again fresh. somethings gone wrong and a clean build of steam and the games should clear everything up.

Ok, I deleted it, (HL2) and it works, but...everything else does that! Even a mod I just just just downloaded like 10 minutes ago! It does the same thing!! And, I don't know if this is why, but I think it is now, the beta shotgun. I put it in before playing.

do it with all the games which include that shotgun. if its usable in all of them, then all of them.
