So last Friday I decided to play cs:go. But when I clicked on it, it said preparing to launch and nothing happened. I already tried verifying the game integrity, re-installing the game, re-installed Steam, and restarting my PC! I am out of options now and idk what to do! please someone help me with this!

do you have the latest drivers for your grafics card? that may be a thing

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Make sure you're launching CS through steam, not its shortcut. Otherwise it just won't let you because it can't be verified.

 

I had this problem when I tried starting it directly.

 

Hope this helps :D
