Okay i had hl working in winex under 16bit but nto 24bit, someone suggested a fix and i tried it and it started up in 24bit but it hung when ever i tried to connect to a game. so i went back down to 16bit(faster anyways) and tried it, now it wont even start up, i get this error when i try and start hl ...
Code:
#~: winex -winver win98 .winex/fake_windows/Sierra/Half-Life/hl.exe -- hl.exe -console -game cstrike
X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  2 (X_ChangeWindowAttributes)
  Resource id in failed request:  0x2a0003f
  Serial number of failed request:  52
  Current serial number in output stream:  101

If anyone knows how i can fix this i would appreciate it very much :) This game is cirrently the only reason i still have a windows partition and i would LOVE to get rid of it :)
