Although, theres nothing apart from Afterburner OSD running which shows you temps and hardware usage.

Just wondering, "what the fok"

Not sure as I haven't used it yet, but try going in a deathmatch game with MSI afterburner on and see if it still gives you the error.

I'm afraid of a VAC ban, dont want to destroy my years old steam account. :/

That happens sometimes. Verify your game files.

Other way if you're using illegal program like skin changer etc. not allowed.

if you get a vacban from msi afterburner , you can make an new account and ill give you all my skins.


msi afterburner/rivatuner DOES NOT give a vacban , ive been using it for years in many games

Well... you don’t have a vac ban so I wouldn’t worry. The way a vac ban works is if your using external software to your advantage; MSI afterburner may or may not have been the cause

Why dont anybody ever read the whole thread before posting

Msi after burner is a overlay. It doesn’t affect the game in any shape or form. What you got was a Warning for using a program that injects something into csgo.

Interesting.
Do note its a fresh windows install.
And the first programs i've got running are following:
Chipset
USB Hub ASMedia
MalwareBytes
MSI Afterburner
Intel Raid Storage Driver
Discord
OCCT
HWMonitor
Greenshot (For Screenshots)


So far the only one that was close to being hooked up with the game was rivatuner. :/

Okay guys, I've found a reason. Turns out in one of the previous games, there was a hacker in my team and I was penalized for playing that round.

Thats probably why I got the error.
And verifying the game files also replaced a broken one.

There can be 9 other cheaters in a game but you dont get that error from that

False positive?
