Memed made the effort to send me 2 CDs filled with full Steam caches (thank you so much memed). Now I'm supposed to be able to play Steam on my machine. So I (re)installed the crap, login with my Steam account
pm@racc-ai.com, as expected waited for
47 minutes and 20 seconds during the "Updating Steam platform" message (and this time the progress bar went in the right direction:
forward. Good point for a start.), then Steam popped up a window to which I gazed with murderer's eyes:
What.
Am.
I.
Supposed.
To.
Do.
With.
This.
I mean, no matter how hard I try, I CANNOT launch Steam. First it was the CS Steam cache who would never finish downloading (I even let it running ONE NIGHT LONG), then later on it was the "Can't connect to Steam network" error, AND NOW THIS ???
So before I burst in pieces, can any of you guys tell me if by hazard it's not me who did something wrong and optionally what I can do about this ???
Windows XP, dial-up, not AOL, 512Mb RAM, GeForce 4, enough computing power, blah blah blah.
