i have played tf2 for more than 5 mins at a time since the last update . since the last update (dont know whether its coincidence or not) the game loops constantly making it unplayable for me (this also affects my other steam games, its not just tf2 and not just multi player

i looked at the steam forums and last count there were at least 120 pages dedicated to this problem but no real answer. Not being totally technically minded this kinda blew me away after reading alot of the pages. anyway, i am gonna need a new graphics card cos I want to get UT3, so for anyone who plays both with no problems, could you give me an idea of what card you use? changing cards didnt solve the problems for alot of the players who have this issue ( think one guy changed his pc in the end...) but at least if i get one that works for both games, I may have a chance to play again without any probs....

thanks wedgy veylan and jimbob for being patient with my looping probs this morning ;D ;D ;D...i must have looked very wierd hanging in the air waving my wrench around and not hitting anything

lol aer... remember it wasnt really morning here in america... lol
Glad your internet didnt get cut when those wires were... but... glad to finally see you around... hopefully we can get the issue fixed so we can play more! lol PS: I have no clue of the problem... i would try lowering your graphics settings or reinstall the game...

aery there is 3 things you could do the first is see if you have all the up to date graphics drivers if that doesn't work uninstall TF2 and re-install if that doesn't work uninstall steam and re-install but first backup all the saved games, maps and configs

ok did uninstall tf2 and reinstall already and also updated drivers....got all the stuff backed up on external hd so will have a go at uninstalling steam next. did try putting on the hubbys pc to see if that worked, his started looping straight away least i had 4 months of fun gaming before mine went like it
