    You're missing your background wallpaper (I suggest re-installing GMod to get it back). If you we're messing around with any wallpapers or backgrounds, this might be the problem

    I get this error all the time as well, If you have tried reinstalling with no success sadly there is not fix (I've tried reinstalling at least 6 times). It means Garry's Mod is not compatible with your computer/hardware.

    What? Because a file can not be found, Garry's Mod is not compatible?
    Try extracting the file from the gcf manually.
