I havent had a chance to test HL2 since then. I will test it and get

Ok I can think of one issue. Have you updated your drivers for your
video
and monitor? I know your other games are fine but I am just wondering
if
it might be a driver issue that HL2 is not liking.

You have to check through Steam that is the program that will run
the
update
and tell you if it up to date.

changed the
setting
on my moniter and HL2 to try to fix it but it didnt help. This
