0x222362ad ERROR when starting CSS + other errors

[⌐■_■]

Hi,

I just reinstalled steam and everything with it, because steam gave me alot of errors lately (wich is no news for me, reallly). When I wanted to run my new map, I got the following error: 'STEAM VALIDATION REJECTED'. OMGWTF!?

Right, so I looked up what it meant and this was steam's answer: ya, we're familliar whit the bug, but we don't want to spent the 3 minutes to fix it so gtfo k thx bye...

Ok, so after just restarting steam a few times I got this error:

One of the reasons I reinstalled steam was because of this ^ error...

Does anyone have an answer to this? Help will be rewarded with appreciation.

That's a memory error. Try running memtest. Also, delete your configs for all Source based games and try again. They're located in /cfg/ folder.

For the map problem, dont run the map from console, make a server from the menu instead.

Aah thx, skdr!

I did the following things:

- allowed combined writing

- changed resolution in winxp, plus refreshrates (I was running the monitor on a custom resolution)

- restarted my pc

After this, I had no errors at all. I think I may have cleaned out my memorycache or something (I'm no expert on this subject )?

Thanks skdr!

In case it comes back again, check this stuck thread in the support section of steampowered:

This kinda error is known to happen for multiple and very different reasons, so it's very possible to see it pop up again
