Alright, i noticed this morning that i only had 500 mb's left on my hard drive, so i decided to delete a few things.  Going through my Add/Remove programs list, i saw the half life SDK, which i had been messing around with a few months ago.  I determined i didnt need it anymore, so i began uninstalling it, but then noticed halfway through that it was removing a whole lot of half life files, and way to much to be just the SDK, so i quickly hit cancel.  But then i decided to play a quick game of science and industry, and my half life wont open.  Any help would be appreciated.

Ohh, i forgot to mention, i dont have my half life CD anymore, gave it to a friend, never got it back.

    best bet is to

    1. uninstall sdk
    2. uninstall hl
    3. reinstall hl
    4. reinstall mods

    safest bet imho.

    continue uninstalling, Then Reinstall. Patch up. Re-download your Mods. Sorry, but the damage is done.

    I'd completely reinstall Half-Life at this point, and backup MOD or configuration files that you don't want to have to reinstall or replace. Clean up your Half-Life stuff, and then put it back on. Personally I haven't fooled with the SDK, so maybe someone who has can tell you what happened.

    Also, did you get any error messages, and what files seem to be missing? Perhaps uninstalling a few MODs to make room for Natural Selection is the way to go. Have you tried deleting all of your temporary files and temporary internet files? Use the disk clean-up utility to get rid of a lot of extra garbage.

    <i>Edit: Wow, quick replys!</i>

    Error Message when i open half life

    Hl has caused an error in HL.exe.  Hl will now close.  If you continue to experience problems, try restarting your computer.

    im not sure whats missing, cuz i dont know what used to be there, but halflife/valve looks to have some holes...

    Dude, just reinstall. Get your CD back. Next time, tell your buddy to buy the game instead of pirating from you.
