Ok, so I finally got my GMod to work after weeks of trying. I wanted to get it to work just to play the FL server and can't even join it! It stays on "Retrieving Server Info" then say I timed out. It doesn't do this to any other server. (DarkRP, TTT, Stop it slender, any other gamemode, only CityRP)
It will play the music and say everything like my money, etc. It will do that for a couple minutes.

Try what Mavis said. Also are there any logs when you timed out? If so please post them here so I can do a small research. The timeout is because you probably freeze at the retrieving server info which makes the server unresponsive to you causing you to timeout.

If I am right you installed a new PC, right? What you should try is turn off your firewall and anti-virus and rejoin. If it doesn't help just turn it back on. This seems like a network problem to me, what wireless internet adapter do you use or do you use a LAN cable?

Try to rename your garrysmod folder (Inside the steamapps folder) to garrysmodbackup, after that run your game and join. If it works you need to reinstall the custom content. This should be the fix for it.

Have you simply deleted your entire garrysmod folder straight from the common file, and reinstalling through steam?
This is considered a fresh reinstall, and if you have never tried it, it will clear anything that may be corrupted.
It's worth a try, although it probably wont fix your problem.
