[Jacob]

Solution #1 (OpenGl Off)
Library -> Right click on Half-Life -> Properties -> Set launch options
Type this in the field: -soft -dep off

Solution #2 (Windows mode)

Dear all, Fallen your solution is not working for me. But I just tried to put -windows instead of
-soft -dep off and it's working for me and also with OpenGL.

If this solution is working for other player ...

You can also make a shortcut to the .exe, with XP SP3 compatiblity mode and administrator mode.

Should not crash now, should also work with the expansion; Blue Shift, Opposing Force and Decay 'mod' :)

It crashes in OpenGL, of course it will crash, the reason we use -soft is to set it to Software mode, no solution for OpenGL so far...
