Well the subject line pretty much says it all.
 
It happens almost every time after I've been into a game for a while that "send report to MS" dialog comes out warning me that HL has crashed.
 
I dont lose connection to the server, anyway. Can stay there and play, then restart HL when im done.
 
 
I run Windows XP Pro x64 Edition that I patch to the latest Windows Update a couple of times a week. Let me know if you need more info about my box
 
 
 
It's not impossible that I may have something misconfigured, as I disabled many Windows services that I dont need... er, I mean, I "think" I don't need. I would appreciate a list of Windows services that must be running for HL to operate properly, so I could make sure that those services are running, and see if that fixes the problem. |

What is your regional settings for non unicode applications ? 
 
 
Also you can report that error to me instead of MS   It will be more helpfull in this case. |

Sure, reporting to you is pretty much what im doing, isnt it? (and I never sent the automatic report to MS anyway)
 
 
OK, I checked  the non-unicode thingy is set to English US |

OK. I'll do that next time I get that crash. In the meantime I tried to adjust some regional settings and it hasnt crashed so far. |

Next version will have fix for east asian (and maybe other) Windows regional settings, so stay tuned. |
