Mystery

I do.

Hmm... I don't think there's a patch like that, or at least there's none yet. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this one wasn't specified at the first page. Anyway, the game works fine with Windows 8. Played competitive LAN twice. No issues about the OS, indeed. That .bin file really fixed the problem.

EDIT: Oh riiight, my internet here is messing up. Thanks anyway

First of all, hello everyone, I am new here. So, I tried this release last night. Followed all the instructions with CSGO (Z:) mounted as Partition 0, and it turned out to be fine. I was able to play, it was very good, had played several times until this morning (or my morning). So here's what happened. I tried putting "csgo.exe" into the Nvidia Control Panel programs tab (I can't seem to remove it because the remove button's grayed out). After that, tried executing the loader again, it just returns back to the desktop. I tried to observe it through task manager. "csgo.exe" seemed to blink there for almost a second. Same with Razer Game Booster, it returns to normal mode right after cmd closes. Tried re-installing twice, in both C: and D: drive, set compatibility mode both 8 and 7 with Run as administrator box checked, yet problem persists. Using Windows 8.1, by the way. No problems with my Windows 7 PC, though. Any ideas? Do you think putting the application into the Nvidia Control Panel is the root of the problem? Thanks. EDIT: I forgot, my laptop was accidentally unplugged from the power source while I was in my last successful game launch.
