Left 4 Dead crashes

Hi,

Just started with left 4 dead but really unhappy from this game, whenever i starts playing after 10 to 15 mins of playing it always crashes. Is there some sort of patch for Left 4 Dead? Anybody else having crash problems?

Thanks for any help

Update to latest driver for your gfx card, post your system specifications so that we can help you in better way.

Here is the system requirements for Left 4 dead:

Minimum:

• Supported OS: Microsoft Windows XP / Vista / Vista64
• Processor: Pentium 4 3.0GHz
• Memory: 1 GB
• Graphics: 128 MB, Shader model 2.0, ATI 9600, NVidia 6600 or better
• Hard Drive: At least 7.5 GB of free space
• Sound Card: DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card

Recommended:

• Supported OS: Microsoft Windows XP / Vista / Vista64
• Processor: Intel core 2 duo 2.4GHz
• Memory: 1 GB
• Graphics: Shader model 3.0, NVidia 7600, ATI X1600 or better

It's working fine on my 3870x2 with 9.2 cats. Is anything heating up? What errors are showing up in the event viewer?

First off the most common fix is to make sure all of your drivers are up to date. This includes:

• Your GFX driver (for Nvidia stick to a 178.XXX driver the 180.XXX drivers have a glitch in them).
• Your Soundcard Driver.
• Your Motherboard Drivers.
• DirectX 9c or 10 installed

Try this:
Fix Left 4 Dead crash:

• Go to Option -> Video
  
• Display Mode -> Select Windowed (No Border)
  
• Multicore rendering -> select Disabled.

With this video setting, it does help to solve Left 4 Dead crash on my case. Hopefully, it will help you too. No worry about the Windowed (No Border) mode. It look alike like Full Screen mode.

Time to kill those zombies.
