Hello - please forgive me if this question has been answered already, though I've spent the last two days searching for an answer.

I have got the Half-life generations pack. I've just got broadband so decided to give HL/CS a go online. Downloaded the latest updates, including steam. When I try to join a game through gamespy, I get an error message saying "This server is using a newer protocol (47) than your client (46)". When I try connecting through steam, I see the splash screen, and then the game hangs on a completely white screen, though sometimes I can hear game sounds.

I've downloaded the most up to date files, uninstalled and tried again, though still have the same problem. When I use the half-life auto updater it tells me I have the most recent files already.

Any suggestions/solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You need to launch Steam, right click on the games you want and make sure they are on auto update. All the updates are done via steam.
