no hes using compatible drivers im using the same ones its just that i think the game might have a glitch cause its deffinatly not the drivers. i got em right off the nvidia website and i assume he did too. and yes.. i downloaded the right ones not ones for a diferent vid card.

Hmm...source works fine on the BF2 drivers on my pc. hmm....try reinstalling the game maybe? Do other games work. Also..maybe wait it out..this could be a bug and Valve may fix it themselves

Had the exact same problem here. system was running fine, installed HL2, updated the drivers (from version 56.72 to 77.72) for the graphics cars (geforce fx5200), tried to play hl2 and got up to fuzzy screen and got that msg. also i found that in windows media player, the videos were coming out wierd looking - like they were too pixilated and not many colours. i still have the executable to my old drivers (56.72), so i re-installed those, windows media player worked fine, tried hl2, did continue anyway when it asked about the drivers, and it worked fine - well considering that my system is getting old anyway. so mabey its not the game - mabey its the drivers thats stuffing up? hope this helps!

Apparently, many 5200 users are getting this error with the latest driver (version 77.72).
Try dropping down to version 71.89.
I have seen this on various forums. try dropping back to the next previous release of the driver and see what happens.

Link to 71.89 That should be the right one.

You can solve the issue fairly easily by removing a registry entry using regedit and still use the WHQL 77.72 drivers.
Full Details
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{YOUR-GUID}\0000
The GUID on yours will be different, but generally it's the furthest one down the list. The 0000 is likely the same (first adapter under that id).
Now delete any entries starting with:
_hl2.exe:
Even though entries will appear in your NVIDIA panel, the values associated with them are gone and you can either forget about it or set defaults or redo your profile.
That's it! HL2/CSS works again!
