"Critical Error

If you are certain that your CPU or graphics card is not overheating then I suggest you verify your game cache through Steam - right-click the game -> Properties -> Local Files -> Verify Integrity of Game Cache. If all files pass validation then try running a check on the drive for errors via Windows - right-click the drive in Computer -> Properties -> Tools -> Check drive for errors.

Stick to one thread. It is a corrupted file so you will need to make sure that you have run chkdsk /r on the drive it is installed on, checked the game cache, and if that fails you will have to uninstall it, and manually remove the leftover files in the killingfloor directory, and reinstall it.
