Every time I go to connect to a server (After running single player) it just sits on the downloading screen (Because for some reason I have to keep downloading the server files each time I join a server.) I've waited up to an hour, and could not take it any longer. I'm on the verge of removing the buggy piece of shit that is garrysmod, one last attempt to un-install and re-install.
It's also been telling me that it's heavily fragmented, but I've defragged it like 50000000 times and it says 0% fragmented. I've also ran multiple defrags on my system, but I've only like last week got it back from the computer store and It's fine.
Wasted so much time trying to fix this when I could have been doing something constructive. >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(
-
de-fragging = good
so isnt Fragmentation 0% good?
Defragmentation 0% would be bad?

Hurr isn't that what I said?

Doesn't that mean your defrag has worked, because 0% is fragmented?

I know how you feel SkeptiK, I tried the same somehow.
I couldn't run any Source game cause of hl2.exe always crashing, I nearly threw my computer out the window. I even contacted Steam Support and waited 1 week for an answer, but they couldn't help either.. So I couldn't play any Source games for 6 months :/

Yes... But it's still not working is what I'm saying. ;)

OHH, so sorry, can't believe I failed to understand that....
on a related note have you tried verifying the inegrity of the game cache or w/e?
-
Yes.
-
What's your OS.
Macintosh?
-
Negative. Windows 7 64bit.
-
at what point does it sit on the loading screen for?
Ensure you're downloading all files
Re-install gmod?
If its stuck at sending client info, its probs down to your router having issues, disconnet/retry in console.
-
It stops on barnies head as it's downloading. I've already re-installed it.
-
Garry's Mod glitches a lot on my PC too ;D
-
My gmod crashes when i just try to get on the loading screen even though I reinstalled and defrag (video card is mobile intel chipset 4 family btw)

Go to your Steam folder and find the file called Client registry.blob and remove that then restart steam and it should fix it.
That file fucks every thing up.
