Random crashing regardless of set up.

Hi guys!
I’ve been having some horrendous crash issues of late around the time of the christmas update. I also started to use broesel’s crosshair switcher around the same time so I have no idea wats the real cause of this issue.
Basically my crashes come from randomly to when i pick a specific class. I have a heavy bunch of class cfgs and i can upload them here if anyone can be kind enough to find the problem.
My graphics.cfg of my cfg set has used Chris’s high frames, but I started using the high quality, max quality and max frames to see if any crashing would occur in different graphical configurations. to no availI the hl2.exe loves to be in my face and not respond.
I attempted with the mat_queue_mode cvar being reset to -1 and resetting the multicore commands back to default.
And at one point I was unable to play demoman or pyro when me and my team mate were using my config.(we’re looking into it now)
My system specs
ASUS G53SX
Intel® Core™ i7 2630QM Processor
Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium
8 Gig DDR3 1333 MHz SDRAM
Dual HDD 500GB 5400rpm (steam and fileson one side and OS with programs on the other)
I’m aware of the throttling issue on this model and have counteracted it by simply running throttlestop in monitoring mode.
Stopped overclocking the gfx card as that seemed to cause instability and I reset it to factory defaults. All drivers updated to the latest available.
I’ll post my cfg set if anyone can help me look through it.
Sorry for this long post but my whole team uses my cfg sets and I can’t give it to them knowing it will cause issues =/
Thank you for your time.
Verify files, defrag.
Its unlikely that something in your config is breaking it if you have used the configs before without fault (though updates do tend to mess stuff up).
Try redling it overnight or something..
I saw that post from the scout about min mode HUD. I thought it was the problem since I bound that key to I but there were no crash issues. They seem to just happen randomly.
I fixed the class specific demo man and pyro crash ( The class cfg executed several aliases that did not exist before it executed the external cdg that would create those aliases)
But the random crashes are still here.
Reinstalled tf2, reinstalled steam. Deleted cache of steam and tf2 to run clean defragged etc.
Still no luck. I just had another crash =/
I disabled windows aero extensions but that didn’t do much. Kinda desperate at this point.
Should I post the error code or my cfg file?
Thanks for helping me out again Chris.
Grab a hud and config from somone for whom it works and see if the problems persist. If not, start using one but not the other and narrow down the problem. I haven’t updated my hud since September and it hasn’t caused me any problems yet using hud_minmode 0. http://etf2l.org/forum/customise/topic-17955
