    Checked your temps? Tried different GFX drivers?

    Also i have heard there are some isuses with sound in HL2 at the moment. Try running it with your sound card disabled. Might be worth a look on the Steam forums too.

    Just thinking it could be CPU temp related, multiplayer isn't really CPU intensive so could be related to that.
