sounds like a networking problem, not a windows problem. hmm now to think of what it could be... ok, i have come up with a conclusion with 2 things. you make sure you are on the net and all that crap and if that dont work post something on the networking section of this site and tell us about it, ill help ya out i just need more info on the networking configs. also tell me what your name is one counter strike, i'd like to play with ya some time. (i go by the name 'FBI Agent' seems obvious hah)

do you have a firewall? If so make sure you give Cstrike access. ZoneAlarm and Norton you can go into option and add, but make sure there isnt one there if so del it and try loading cs again when pop come give acces and check remember choice.
