Platform error: module failed to initialize

I was compiling a new map I just started. Right as HL2DM was about to autorun my new map I decided to listen to music, so I frantically opened Zune and hit the play button. This caused HL2DM freeze. alt+ctrl+delete didn’t work so I had to hit the power switch on my computer. Now I get the error in the thread title when DM gets past the blurred loading screen after starting the game. I reinstalled DM and still got the problem. I get the same error with HL2.

Please help. :frowning:

…does it say which module?
