Right

Due to the new update to directX 9.0 to 9.0c it is now crashing many gamers due to there graphics card have a shader model of 2, well DirectX is trying to draw a shader model of 3 on many source games now anyone who has this problem will understand how frustrating it is to not even get on a game and just crash

Now from what i've learnt, i believe you cannot hold DirectX at 9.0 as it auto updates and ive found now control settings, steamsupport hasn't helped either it has no solutions to this problem

I've even tried running CSS at DXlevel 80, Which aloud me to connect to a server but for some reason textures seased to exist and soon after a crash, i am truly stuck for a whole month if i cannot find a way to fix this problem otherwise i have to get a new graphics card Cry Cry =(

Please if anyone knows how to fix this problem i would be so greatfull i may even reward i just hope someone can help
