Check to see if HL2 is fully updated/Downloaded. I had this error whenever I wanted to play a HL2 mod. The problem was that HL2 wasn't fully updated/downloaded.

Right click your steam icon, go to Games, click the My Games tab, and there should be a status right next to HL2.

Here is my suggestion:

Right click on half-life 2, go to properties, then go to the local files tab, then click on "Verify integrity of game cache...". After its done verifying click on "Defragment cache files".

Problem: Game locks up at the Loading screen
Question
When I start my game I lock up at the Loading Screen.
Answer
For those using Firewall software, you need to manually re-add C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\username\half-life 2\hl2.exe to your exceptions list. Once the game exe has been updated on your Firewall you should no longer lock up at the Loading screen.


If that doesn't work, copy whats below and paste it in your web client Make sure the * is included or it will not work correctly. It will verify that you meet the system requirements to run steam and will also display any thing which could be causing a obvious error.

steam://support/?Issues=*

If that doesn't help you then go to the link below for general troubleshooting:

Turn off firewall, check if you have minimum specs needed for the running of HL2
