Every time i go to play counter strike: source on steam, the main menu page of CS:S come up for like a second, then it goes back to what i was doing previously before i clicked it and a little box pops up saying;

Engine Error
Platform Error: module failed to initialize

What does this mean??
And i have tryed to re-install it, nothing happens, i have closed down basically every other internet running program, nothing happens.... and its really starting to drive me around the bend...
Can anybody help me please??...

There is a simple solution for this.

1) Open Steam, and click File-->Settings
2) Select the tab named 'In-Game'
3) Find where it says 'Enable Steam Community In-Game' and untick the box. It should work.
