Hello i got a Steam bug.

[Tobias Lidegaar]

I had buyed Windows 7 Home Premium To my new computer
But i haven't seen any good thing abaute it i have only seen bugs and thing that does the computer more bad things.

I have not had a feeling that Windows 7 is good,
When i open steam i got the problem that it opens the loading option
it goes up to 99% Installed and then it just keeps being there i have waited abaute 3 hour and it haven't moved please help

That Bug is over now but now i got a new one
In steam i got a game could "Garrys Mod"
Windows Xp Runs it perfect bun when i am playing it on Windows 7
It Crashes abaute 50 times a day the windows 7 says when it crashes
In English
"Hl2.exe has stopped functioning windows searching for a solution to the problem"
In Danish
"Hl2.exe er stoppet med at fungere windows søger efter en løsning på problemmet"

On my old computer i used Windows Xp Home Premium
and it runned great i could use steam and play games

Thanks in advance

Hi tobias

Appears that there is an issue with the latest update - more info here and here

One of the posters posted this solution on the first link above:

ok guys i think i got it worked out

make a file in your garrysmod folder named "steam.inf"
put this info in

PatchVersion=1.0.0.76
ProductName=garrysmod
appID=4000

save it and put the steam.inf on your server AND in your clientside

this worked for me

it seems that garrysmod team or valve team left out this info maybe by accident.

Also it seems someone thought it was funny to over-ride the ulx motd with a counterstrike.com spam. so you guys may want to look at your motd's a lso

hope things work out

Regards

Do you have Steam installed at its default location? In Program Files?

If so, have you tried Backing up your games, uninstalling Steam and re-install to a different location?

Such as making a new folder for it on another hard Drive or on the C drive?

For example: C:/Steam

Then manualy choose the install location when re-installing?

You could try going into the steam folder and deleting a file called clientregistry.blob while steam is not running and try again.

 

[Tobias Lidegaar]

i tryed all that but it didnt help i allready tryed to delete clientregistry.blob and tryed to reinstall it and alot of other things.

 

[Tobias Lidegaar]

i tryed to delete clientregistry.blob and it didnt work itryed reinstall it and it didnt help to.

Have you tried installing Steam with Admin rights turned on? Sometimes this makes a program work right.

I have a same problem than you Tobias. Every time Steam updates itself I have to reboot in safemode and then update steam.
