VAC Stops after a while

[uN_Eof]

I dont know why, after some time the server is up, the VAC icon hides from the LAN Server list.

I'm using SRCDS(HldsUpdateTool) in a dedicated server hosted in my home.


Thank in advance and sorry my english

Server OS: Windows XP SP3 32Bit
Processor: P4@1.8
Ram: 1Gb
Game(s): Counter Strike: Source
Start Up Command:

@echo off
cls
title srcds
:srcds
echo (%time%) srcds started.
start /wait C:\srcds\srcds.exe -console -tickrate 100 -game cstrike +maxplayers 16 +map aim_2bases +sv_gravity 800 +sv_airaccelerate 160
echo (%time%) WARNING: srcds closed or crashed, restarting.
goto srcds

Try reinstalling the entire server. Start from scratch, it usually seems to work.

I will try this, but i prefer trying another thing before doing that.
I dont want to erase my server, if there could be a solution available.


PS: omg sorry my english haha

Backup the files you want to save before reinstalling. Don't backup any of the key files like exe's and dll's

I am backing up the entire server.

[Beaverbeliever]

Don't do that, or else you won't be doing yourself any good

Backup some of your addons and cfg's and maps, but don't worry about backing up the rest.

Well.... I'm now installing it in a newe hard drive (NTFS Empty).
I will install the addons, maps, all the custom mani, etc... later.
