I got half life (the original) last week. I just decided to install it now, which seems to have worked well, but ingame, I'm having problems with the graphics. After the valve logo think (the guy with a valve in his eye), I get a sort of flashing effect. It only happens while playing, and on the main menu.
The whole screen doesn't flash, and not all the time either. It's about 2-3 cm horizontally over different regions of the screen. there's about 2 flashed every second.
Does anyone know how to get rid of them? (I'm using the system that's in my sig at 1024x768 - is that too high?)
Another small thing is that if I press escape whilst in game, then click resume game, it comes up with this:
v45 1.1.0.8
The audio in game still happens, but I get no visual for a few seconds. Maybe it's supposed to happen, maybe not - I don't know.
One last thing - might have just been a flukey glitch (one off). After the tran ride in black mesa, as guard opens a door. I walked through. When the next dooor opened, I seemed to just be stuck to the side to the room, and could move. Like I said - it might have been a one off thing. I'll try again later.
