Windows 10: Black Screen issue / CSGO / CS2

Hello there!I have been facing hard time when I play CS2, my screen sudently become black. It happens to me since I built my PC. I did many formats and installed new windows 10, also new windows 11 but nothing helped. I have verified the game files and everything I could do. Nothing helped.After I get the black screen I can't do anything on my PC. Even if I try to shoot or move in CSGO/CS2 it does not react at all. Just like the whole PC is froozen while I can still hear my friends on discord but they can't hear me any longer.I have played many games and I don't remember that I got this issue

Ctrl+w doesnt work for cs2

Hi, Jackson Soska

Welcome to the MicroSoft Community.



If Ctrl + W does not work for CS2 even after trying a new keyboard and ensuring that Toggle Keys, Sticky Keys, and Filter Keys are off, there are a few other things you can try:

• Remap the Ctrl + W keybind: You can try remapping the Ctrl + W keybind to a different key combination in CS2. To do this, follow these steps:
  
  1. Open CS2 and go to the Options menu.
     
  2. Click on the “Keyboard/Mouse” tab.
     
  3. Find the “Toggle Weapon” keybind and click on the “Change” button.
     
  4. Press the new key combination that you want to use for the Toggle Weapon keybind.
     
  5. Click on the “OK” button to save your changes.
     
• Verify the integrity of the game files: It is possible that some of the game files for CS2 have become corrupted. You can verify the integrity of the game files through Steam by following these steps:
  
  1. Open Steam and go to your Library.
     
  2. Right-click on CS2 and select “Properties.”
     
  3. Click on the “Local Files” tab.
     
  4. Click on the “Verify integrity of game files…” button.
     

Steam will then scan the game files for CS2 and replace any corrupted files that it finds.

• Update your graphics drivers: Outdated graphics drivers can sometimes cause problems with games. To update your graphics drivers, follow these steps:
  
  • For NVIDIA graphics cards:
    
    • Go to the NVIDIA website and download the latest drivers for your graphics card.
      
    • Once the drivers have been downloaded, run the installation program and follow the on-screen instructions.
      
  • For AMD graphics cards:
    
    • Go to the AMD website and download the latest drivers for your graphics card.
      
    • Once the drivers have been downloaded, run the installation program and follow the on-screen instructions.
      
• Reinstall CS2: If none of the above steps work, you can try reinstalling CS2. To reinstall CS2, follow these steps:
  
  1. Uninstall CS2 from your computer.
     
  2. Delete the CS2 folder from your Steam directory.
     
  3. Restart your computer.
     
  4. Reinstall CS2 from Steam.
     

If there is anything not clear or I can't understand your problem, please do not hesitate to let me know.
