Hi all,

I'm sorry if this is a silly question as I'm sure I must be missing 
something obvious but I've scoured the forums and wiki with no success...

- I'm starting a mod based on hl2mp with the Orange Box Base.  After 
changing SteamAppID from 440 to 218 in GameInfo I have successfully 
compiled Debug and Release builds of the Server and Client with no errors. 
- I can run both of these from My Games in Steam, using -allowdebug as a 
flag for the Debug build.
- However, when I try to run the Debug build through VS2005 Express by 
right clicking the Client and choosing Debug/Start New Instance I get a 
dialog with the following error:-
        "Windows has triggered a breakpoint in hl2.exe. This may be due 
to a corruption of the heap, and indicates a bug in hl2.exe or any of 
the DLLs it has loaded."
- The Output gets as far as:-
        'hl2.exe': Loaded 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\sxs.dll', No symbols loaded.
  Then the error:-
        HEAP[hl2.exe]: Invalid Address specified to RtlFreeHeap( 
106C0000, 106C425C )
        Windows has triggered a breakpoint in hl2.exe.

- The dialog gives me the choice of breaking or continuing.  If I 
continue it appears to carry on without any ill-effects

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? It would make more 
sense if the error occured when running through Steam as well, and I am 
completely stumped.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Phil
