help....
The same thing happens to me but I can see the picture. I am reinstalling as we speak and i'll tell you if it works. By the way what resolution are you running it on.
Maybe something to do with you running it in a window? Is the game freezing up and not responding?
I heard somewhere that if your ping is usually too high or something, you might not be able to render the main menu. Just a thought, I s'pose.

well maybe, but the menu still doesnt render in fullscreen mode, it will finish reinstalling in about 10 mins (its on 95%), i wont change anything or put in any addons and i will tell you what happens to me
EDIT:
the game runs fine and if i'm lucky I can start a single player game and even then the "q" menu doesnt show up when i press "q".And if i click randomly it will spawn a prop or two
'Kay. I also just had another thought, if it takes 10 Minutes to download 5%, maybe you have too much stuff on your computer, and GMod doesn't have enough RAM left to run..
gmod has enough ram left, i have a program which tells me how much free RAM i have and it is always at about 250, and i have an average download sped of 90 kb/s (Im on wireless)
EDIT:
i will post screenies if i can of what happens.
'Kay, I'll be waiting.. Though I might fall asleep.. :F
hehe its on 99%, give me about 10 mins for takin screenies and loading times
If it still shows a black screen, maybe close all the windows? Restart your computer? D:
ok i dont know how to put in screenshots, im new to this forum.
Just put an Image URL into an [IMG][/IMG] Tag. Like this;
[IMG]Image URL[/IMG]
oh ok, do i have to upload the images to somethin like photobucket? or the document location on my pc
Yes, Photobucket. Or Imageshack.. Something like that.
here is the main menu

sorry if its too small
It's okay.. Well, at least you can see the menu.. Try rolling over the options, does it make the sound?
yeah it makes the sound
Hm.. Try clicking. If the game works, that's a plus.
yeah i clicked the top one (i think) and the game has started, but no spawn menu, just the ballon popup things
:S Hm.. I'm sorry, I can't come up with a solution right now.. Did you restart your computer?
yeah
[editline]08:50AM[/editline]
this is weird, but if i click in the right places i can get different things like the wheel gun and hoverballs. thanks anyway
Hm. It's 1:00 Am right now, I'm sorry that I couldn't fix the problem, but I'm glad I could help, even just a little bit.. Going to bed.
ok thanks, have a nice sleep
What are your specs of your computer. (If you don't know, go into start menu, run, -dxdiag)
copy and paste.
If you know the GPU name, just say it. DX7 messes up the graphics. DX6 is worse.
i have an Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.4GHz processor, and my GPU is 3D Prophet 4500 TV Out 64MB.
Good god.
Have you been able to play gmod ever? Or did you just get it and this happened.
Try adding -dxlevel 80 in startup options. If no luck, then try these numbers in place of 80: 81, 90, 70, 95...
i can run GMOD and join servers and such but i just cant see the prop menu or the main menu(shown in pictures above). Ezkik i will try that.
