The Natural Selection desktop shortcut is bugged. You can fix this problem by deleting it and using the shortcut in the start menu, or by starting up regular HL and selecting Natural Selection in the custom games menu.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Another option is to fix the shortcut. Briguy992 explained how to do this, but I'll try to explain it more clearly. Right-click on your Natural-Selection desktop shortcut, click on properties, and put the path to your Half-Life folder in the <u>start in</u> box.
