Reinstalling won't help you much, at least it never did that for me.

Try the following things:

Code:

+r_hunkalloclightmaps 0 -heapsize 3145728 +cl_cmdrate 100 +myinfo_bytes 2000 +cl_updaterate 101 +rate 30000 -dxlevel 80 -w 1600 -h 900 -windowed +mat_antialias 8 +mat_forceaniso 16

+r_hunkalloclightmaps 0 = fix for engine hunk overflow

-heapsize 3145728 = Set how much memory in kb Garry's Mod is allowed to use. This is in my case 50% of my 6GB ram

+cl_cmdrate 100 +myinfo_bytes 2000 +cl_updaterate 101 +rate 30000 = Settings to fix most buffer overflow crashes.

-dxlevel 80 = reducing graphical appearance for more performance and stability really important

-w 1600 = width of my window

-h 900 = height of my window

-windowed = sets Gmod to a window instead of fullscreen

+mat_antialias 8 = Set antialias to 8x, since dxlevel 80 doesn't remember my settings for some reason

+mat_forceaniso 16 = Set flitering mode to 16


The only error I still receive are reliable snapshot overflow.

Go to the garrysmod/garrysmod folder and delete the "cache" folder. Afterwards start up the map in singleplayer, disconnect and join the server. That does normally work...
