Hi, I've introduced myself already so I reckon I'd put my questions in here.
I've been trying to play HL2 and CS online and I can usually find a server and get a game with CS but HL2 when I try and play I get taken to a screen which shows looking for servers but everything freezes and I have to restart my computer.

Also, quite often I'll pick a server for CS and I'll get taken to the screen which offers games for sale. Why is this as I already obviously have HL2 + CS? As far as I'm aware I'm not doing anything wrong but then again maybe I am...

Counter Strike: Source came with Half Life 2 - there are other games listed in the Server list that hail from previous versions - you won't be able to play games that are just marked Counter Strike, or Counter Strike: Condition Zero.

As for your other query, I'm not too sure what you mean - You can't play Half Life 2 DeathMatch at all? Or is it the single-player Half Life 2?

Moppet have a look at your settings for steam...

There is an option to block certain elements...

Ah that explains it, I CAN play CS- Source but not the earlier versions. Cheers for that.
As for HL-2 Deathmatch, well I've been playing all afternoon so I guess it works! Why I was getting problems before I don't know.

Anyway, thanks again.
