    So I decided to shoot some CS:Source after studying, and that hope came to an abrupt halt when it locked up my notebook just before connecting to the server. I have no idea what the problem is. The first time it happened, I has Media Player up, the music started skipping, hella lot, then it locked up. Second time, I made sure it was a fresh boot (since I had to hard reboot it because it completely locked up the cpu and everything) and it still froze up on me.

    I'm here now wondering what I should (or shouldn't do) before trying to get in again. The only thing I've changed lately was turning on Defender to update what I'd probably never use. But CS never screwed up before I stopped using it. So yeah, I just need some insight on this mysterious glitch, because I really need to shoot somebody! lol.

    Just need to add > I was playing CS this morning, so this problem just occured in the last couple hours =/
