Question Counter-strike help in winXP

All of a sudden for some reason counter-strike freezes the comp when my son plays the game, did this on win2k, so I formatted and installed winXP on his comp, and the game does it againwhen exiting a server and then trying to join another one, anyone have any ideas?
Retail version completely updated to 1.3 too

Done it all, everything has been updated both in win2k and then on the winXP machine too, even clean installs then updates, notthing seems to work, and I hate to go back to winBlowsMe just for a game
