so all of a sudden GMod suddenly decides to scream this at me in console

after that appears in console, textures will start to break, eg, becoming black, fullbright, or just not appearing whatsoever, and elements of the HUD will disappear. any idea how to fix this? the only games that do this are TF2 and GMod. L4D1, Bioshock, L4D2, Fallout 3/New Vegas, and SiN Episodes all ran fine, with no VRAM run-outs in sight.
