hammer failing?? here's the most common solution

hi,

i didn't know if everyone knew this, i didn't untill yesterday, but

the new hammer for half life 2 doesn't run in all windows versions, i've even heard it only runs in win XP,

mine keeps crashing in win ME and win 95 and 98 seem to crash for alot
of people, so if you are having similar problems and do not ahve XP i
suggest it's time to get XP, but

again i'm not sure about it running in only XP, it's just that some one
told me and mine and a couple of my friends keep crashing , and we all
have win ME 98 or 95 and everyone i know of who has a hammmer that
works has win XP proffesional.

i hope this helps you all with crashing hammers :biggrin:
