Hi Guys. Im new to this forum. So plz if this thread is in wrong section.. Mods plz move it. and lemme know where u moved :D

Ok so i bought Half Life 2 DVD from local dvd games shop today. i want to run it on my Dell D600 laptop. here are the spec.
Intel Pentium M 1.66GHz
512mb ram
60gb hdd
ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9000 32 mb

As instructed i copied all the files from dvd to my HDD drive and run start.bat file. It started the intro in 800x600res (i have 1024x768). after hl2 intro it started loading.. but gave me this error...

"Runtime Error!

D:/.../HL2/hl2.exe

The Application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an ususual way.
Cantact Support blah blah blah."

Plz help anybody. First of all is it a hardware problem or one of the file are currupt? my guess is file hl2.exe maybe currupt?

its glad to see a pakistani gaming community really. good job.

thanks for the feedback mates. i tried copying again couple of times. it didnt worked. there is no specific crack file it just says to copy all files to your hard disk and run. it gives same error mentioned above. i'll try get another dvd from rainbow center maybe it works. who knows.

by the way if anybody have the game installed can he/she give me hl2.exe file. i think that my hl2.exe is curropt.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
