Did you try turning it off and on again? Seriously, a simple system reboot can do wonders sometimes. Give it a shot before diving into more complex solutions.

Check for overheating issues. CS:GO can be demanding on your PC, and if it's overheating, the game might crash to prevent damage. Make sure your cooling system is working correctly.

Mods or custom content could be the culprit. If you've installed any custom skins, maps, or other mods, try removing them. These can sometimes cause conflicts leading to crashes on map load.

Lowering your video settings could help too. Sometimes the game crashes because your PC can't handle the graphics. Go to settings and lower the resolution and effects, then gradually increase them to find a stable setup.

Usually, CS:GO crashes on map load because of outdated graphics drivers or game files corruption. First thing, make sure your graphics drivers are up to date. NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel release new drivers frequently, so check their websites. If that doesn’t fix it, verify the integrity of game files through Steam: Right-click CS:GO in your Steam Library > Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files. This process will check for corrupted files and replace them.
