I forgot to backup my Half Life saves when I reformatted last night.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Right, firstly make sure that the Console is turned on by going to Options->Keyboard, Click Advanced and make sure the console checkbox is checked.

Next, go back to the title screen and press ` (the key to the left of 1 at the top of your keyboard) and type

map d1_town_01

this should drop you in ravenholm at the beginning, you might be able to get closer to where you want to be by typing

map d1_town_02, 03, etc. im not sure.

When I copied and pasted the map details it actually brought up that one and another with a at the end.

This put me exactly where I was before!

Oh, I see, nice to know, I'm having probs re-installing HL2, if you don't mind helping I'll start another thread on it

It took me three attempts to reinstall Half Life 2 yesterday.

First two locked up because it couldn't access a .ico file even though the disc is in immaculate condition.

The third one froze my pc but when I rebooted it went through the Steam process and works fine.

Not sure whether this means anything but I wasn't installing CSS on the first two attempts.

I install all my games onto seperate hard drives,9 times out of 10 they just work with a reinstall,obviously sometimes save sit themselves in my documents but I tend to remember to back these up before a format

If you ever want to see all maps in single player AND multiplayer, type "maps *" (without speech marks) into the console and it will list all the maps available. It's what I usually do if I want to start the game at a certain point.
