cant create a game

every time i go to create a game the selection for wat type of game i want to create doesnt come out.then if i do every thing and create it the game throws me out of hl.any comments;( :\ :no: :cry:

and y is it that noone has the same idds (or watever its called )that i do.so i cant really play the game at all.:cry

slow down...so mainly..whats the problem can you play/not play
or can you create a game/or not create a game ??

i got the same problem i cant create it evr ses host error or cant find map on servr and i got all the maps whats going on

i cant play the game at all if I try to joing it just tells me that my d_wateva isnt the same as the host`s.If I try to create a game it doesnt let me choose wat type of game and wen i put create it takes me to this screen were all I see is ESf written real big.the whole screen is blue w/those leters.Then I wait wait wait wait wait and nothing.how long is it sopposed to take to start a game:cry:
