Cut off

[davo]

Hey I installed Cs yesterday half of it and today i put install again it did the rest but alot of things are cut and it doesn't work. Like in cs when it connects to a game I can't see the settings for name and shit they are blank or just the first letter. Please help. BTW I GOT STEAM AND IT AUTO INSTALLED IT FOR ME WHEN I JOINED A SERVER. At least if you are going to tell me to uninstall and install again I can't find uninstall anywhere for counter strike. I see some buttons when i connect to a game, but I can't see what they mean. Everything is cut off. PLEASE HELP ME, thanks..

Sorry for d-p but maybe i had to install regular cs before steam installed 1.6 cs or it just does that by itself? I downloaded steam from www.steampowered.com and i didnt use cd.

Alright, since your new I will let you off easy. PLEASE READ THE RULES, DO NOT DOUBLE or in your case TRIPLE POST or BUMP THREADS. Now for your problem, install steam, install Counter-Strike though steam. Leave steam running overnight to download all the Counter-Strike content and updates, when it is all done downloading(check monitor when your not on CS, but steam only; rightlick steam icon/monitor) it should work fine. If you have any further problems come back to THIS thread and make a new post with information about your new problem.

and the reason u get "timed out" is cuz ur comp is bad wat are you running on?(not connection ur comp)

Davo, try this:

Right-click CS in Steam's Games menu, click Properties, and click launch options. In the prompt, type -gl and hit enter. This should start CS in opengl mode. It sounds like you're in D3D mode right now... that's what happens when my CS starts in D3D.

Yes I am when I put it in gl i think my video card sucks america so it doesn't support gl..When i put it on software a gay error comes say's using software to open cs but opens in d3d..
EDIT:Lol I learned how to use this button thanks to master_america..Well, when i start it in openGL everything is cut off..Like when cs just opens for find servers I just see F for options i just see O and so on..

 

[Master.America]

Eh... CS is only run effectively from OpenGL mode. Unfortunately, if your card doesn't support OpenGL mode, then you probably need a new one.

Steam's minimum requirements have apparently changed (I just checked) from 1Ghz to 400Mhz. However, I believe it is highly recommended that your computer runs at at least 1 Ghz.
