if CS is not exited properly, it will show your desktop at 640x480 (I think that's it) I usually click start (or hit the windows key) goto programs / sierra / half-life. then close half-life and the desktop is normal again.

not sure if it will be it, but the easiest thing to try to stop this from happening is to delete your cache.wad file in your cs directory. I have to do that about once every 9 months or so (sooner if there are a ton of people using different sprays) and it seems to fix the problem.

and don't worry cs will rebuild the file as needed.

like I said, this may not fix your problem, but there is a good chance it will, and it only takes a few sec. to try.
