I left it and played TF2 and just checked no progress at all!

I even transfered all the backup datas on both discs onto my harddrive and still no progress?? what? I need to click install from Steam first then only I can backup from DVD???

with these kind of options in both discs, what should I click???

I've clicked the damn steambackup.exe and nothing happens (as in the game is not installing what so ever).

Right now, I just a dig a hole and for me to jump in and be buried alive. I clicked Install from Steam client and now steam is downloading the game instead of me (should have been) doing the easy way of backing up the game so that I dont have to waste time downloading. Ive just wasted my money getting the dvd from Deimos..

Or did the file corrupted???


I dont know what else I can do.. Steam sucks.

Ive tried countless time. It will eventually popup a window asking to backup game. Clicked everything and it will eventually stuck at 'Creating local game cache.... ' and just there. The progress bar is not moving even left there for more than an hour. I think the backup file is corrupted?

one more thing, I always get Error in connection (connection timeout) each time repeating the backup game sequence. Why is that? Ive logged on to Steam tho.

sucks man.. now I am downloading it instead. Another friggin 4 hours to go..

Ive tried it countless time.

DVD drive is working fine and Ive transferred both discs files onto my hdd in a specific folder so that I dont have to change the discs. With all that, its still not working.

dont know bro.. maybe my steam client is fcuked up. Everytime also Error (connection timeout) whenever trying backup the game.. but I am connected. Dunno la.. maybe I just got the bad apple of steam..

does steam dont work on Win7? Im using Win7 32bit.. worried if Steam only works on WinXP only..

formatting my hdd and do a clean install Win7? I dont think I wanna do that.. too much hassle for me.

currently downloading the game and another 3GB more to go.. with the unstable connection, I think I'll only be able to play the game tonite.
