Hi, currently just get my new pc with win7 64 bits. I had copy the whole steam folder and paste in new pc's harddisk.
(First I download 1.5Mb steam client and install in new pc then only copy and replace whole steam folder from old pc to new pc's steam folder.
Later I found out that my teamfortress still need redownload about 3GB of update patch(which I already finished download in 28th August in old pc and then only transfer whole to new pc in 29th august.)

Anyone can tell me what is the problem? I dun want to redownload 3GB patch again.
or I should use steam backup content for team fortress then restore back to new pc? but my old pc dun even have 10 gb space for that.

bad news, that day I told you all that after I transfer to new PC, my tf2 need to update 3gb file (I suspect patch on 28 Aug although I already update in old PC and copy the whole steamapps to new PC). Then monday after I recopy the file, I able to play Tf2 without downloading new patch.
Yesterday it force me to download 3GB again. Anyone know what is the problem?

Try renaming TF2 folder at steamapps/common/tf2 folder into somthing else. Re-copy the folder from your previous copy. check if still updating.

At earlier thread, about 28 Aug, I get new PC and start transfer all steam file to new pc. That time I forced to update team fortress, but I recopy again from old pc to new pc then team fortress 2 no need to update anymore. Then next time when I start steam, it stuck at steam client update. Tried many time also cannot work, then I download deimos link and finally it able to work.
After that although I have latest TF2 file in that folder(I had move it to correct folder after using deimos file into current steam path) but it force me to download about 3GB tf2 file again.
Then yesterday finally finished download and I able to play tf2. Now when I start steam, it got steam client update again and I stuck at client update.
Do I need to keep using deimos file for that? Suppose my current steam folder already have those deimos file at there.
I using win 7 64bit. Anything related to firewall or UAC or what?

If you stuck at client update, it isn't necessary steam fault.
Possible connection.

Actually my old pc and new pc both using same connection(same line,same modem).
The different between new pc and old pc is old one use winxp(never face any upgrade problem after using steam for half year while new pc is using win 7 64 bit, keep facing update problem)
The client should set connect to Singapore server or Malaysia server?
