    game problem

    I run Steam both as a download service and game organiser.

    For some reason when I open up HL1 the load screen(thats Gordon and his shotgun) is HUGE,, all icons are off the screen,, so I cant start a game to get to the options screen,,

    any ideas?

    Worth a try:

    Launch STEAM
    Go into your steam "LIBRARY",
    right-click on Half-Life,
    select "properties",
    select "Launch options" button,
    put in (or add at the end):
    -width 800 -height 600
    Click OK,
    click close,
    double-click half-life.

    enjoy

    There's a new engine coming soon, too. Not sure about HL but an updated CS.
