ok, its my first time posting, im a total ch00blet, and i suck at mapping. I have made one just to get the basics down and when I attempt to compile it, it gives me an error. I am doing it without running the game. (btw this is a hl map, i was referred by shadowh4ck's friend, that's his aim name at least)

Hrm, I've never gotten that error before.
It sounds like something is stopping the compiler from getting a block of memory.
Are you using Hammer to compile the map? I'd recommend trying to use Nem's Batch Compiler or the ZHLT Compile GUI with the ZHLT Compile Tools.
It might be something with your swapfile, if it's a memory error. Make sure you let Windows manage your swapfile so it isn't set too small.
Try compiling with those tools and see how it goes.
