How to use a CS cheat
You need a program to handle the .rar files. Vi recommend you to download WinRar.
When you have unpacked the files, you will most of the times have a readme.txt file. The instructions for the hack is in this file, read it and follow the instructions! If the readme.txt file is missing, then extract the files anywhere but the Steam folder! Then open the hack and start Counter-Strike. The hack should work now. Typically you press the INSERT, DELETE or HOME key to open a cheat-menu (often you can also read this in the readme).


If it does not work
Remember always to download the newest and most opdated cheat you can find. Old hacks are often blocked by VAC. Also remember to read the readme.txt file and follow the instructions! If it still does not work, after you did what the readme said, then check if you are running CS in OpenGL mode (almost every hack only works in OpenGL). To run your game in OpenGL, go to "Options -> Video -> Renderer" and choose OpenGL. Notice that not all graphic cards supports OpenGL. Some hacks also require that you have .NET Framework installed to work. Be sure to have this installed too.

Sum up
- Do you have the newest and most up to date version of the hack?
- Does your game run in OpenGL mode?
- Do you have .NET Framework installed?
