I have a question

[redstarfish]

So when I start up Tf2, it takes forever to load, estimate 20 minutes to load it up and join a server, is this normal?

And if not ill probably just make it a window, thanks!

20 minutes? No, that's not really normal, but it may have something to do with your system. What sort of computer specs are you running?

 

[redstarfish]

Well I load css fine so it isnt my PC but I think Ill just make it a window cause it takes up alot of space I assume and my PC probably cant handle all of it, so Ill tell youi if putting it in a window makes it a little faster.

actually TF2 is a lot more resource intensive than CS:S...it's quite a bit newer and is harder for your computer to run, so it might be a memory problem or maybe your hardware is just on the back-end of the curve to handle it.

You are correct in thinking that TF2 is more resource intensive, however, a 20 minute load time for any software is sub-par to say the least.

If your computer specs meet or exceed the following, please let me know. Support Staff will be more than happy to take a peek around your computer and look for 'Red Flags'.
