These basic questions are better answered on the SRCDS.com forums. There are a bunch of things that could cause this and a forum is the bnest place for this. Do a post there with all the details of your install and you should get the help you need. On a side note, the first thing to check is your command line and how you're starting the server. My guess you have that wrong. Good luck.

Then deleted steam_api.dll and threw a -verify_all update in case it was corrupted... Also, I'm not sharing the install directory with other games, the folder has only my tf2 server installation.

Also make sure you're not sharing the install directory with other games such as garry's mod or anything else running on a different engine.
