We regularly play Dark Messiah at our LAN, and I got that working straight off the disc. The only issue I've had with Source is SDK 2007 mods, but only because it's _extremely_ hard coded to have the SDK in a specific location.
But yeah, games that do outright crash are pretty easily patchable and most likely already have been.
If its the disk version, you have the 32bit executable. That'll work just fine. It's when the executable is 64bit, but the rest of the engine isn't.
