Both of my frens is having the same problem.

Both are new to steam. Download steam and install. Ok.
Start steam. Updating comes up. Then disappear. Then nothing happen. *blink blink*
Try a few times. No go.
Try to repair steam. No go.
Try to switch of everything else ( like other comp, torrent and even anti virus ). No go.

Please help T.T

Hey noobfc, you suggested the fix above to somebody else's question before on moving the Steam directory to another drive. Any idea how to split up Steam games across drives and still work, e.g some games on C:, some games on D: ? Or is there any way to specify a different install directory when you install a new game? Tks!

Search for a member called Deimos. In his signature you will find a download link to the Steam client. Unzip it, open steam.exe in it, let it update. Once it updates fully, copy the contents of the folder into your own Steam folder, replacing every thing.

If it still refuses to update, try doing it at 3am in the morning. Worked for me laugh.gif

Method 1: Please try at different time of the day like wat Quickfire said...

Method 2: or use Prasys by connecting using Hotspot Shield

Method 3: Start Steam in offline mode.

hmmm hmm.gif splitting up steam games across c and d, nvr tried before and i think it cant be done ( someone test it out tongue.gif ) and usually when it install is at ur steam folder which you placed on your c or d

i think you should rearrange the files on your hard disk, lets say you move stuff from d to c then you have more space for steam at d

General rule of thumb

Dont buy any games for windows live for MP (except for DOW II , DOW II is a bit retraded in sense that it uses steam for DRM and windows live for matchmaking , which means you'll find people to play with , Dirt 2 , Street Fighter IV cause SF IV you'll find somebody). I dont recommend buying a Games for Windows Live for MP. Look at great games like GTA IV , LCS , James Bond 007 QoS
