As far as I know you just upgrade it right through Steam, go to Browse Games and then the Silver or Gold package.

ok i've come to install the dvd. its installed steam along with it. now when i come to register, i choose to use a existing account.. it then says processing.. and thats it..!!! it shoots my cpus processs upto 100% and just sits there.. so i then tried to create a new account.. and the same thing happens..!! wtf..!! stupid steam ..!! bah.. :angry:

I am still using the hovercraft and the puzzles are already giving me a real big headache. :pinch: Puzzles everywhere and I have school tmw. This is gonna hurt.

The hovercraft was bouncing all over the place and finding my way around and driving it and looking out for the helis was crazy! This game is so crazy!!! :devil:

Well i'm stuck already.. on my way through the waterways and I just found a lake of green crap and all I can find to get me across it are 4 barrels... tried throwing em in and hopping across and I am just not getting anywhere. Any suggestions?

LINK to screenshot please?

im really ****ed of not bein able to create a new account, i neva used steam before but now dat i have to create an account dis is wot i get, it takes abot 5 mins sayin "creating new account" after that i get this message as shown below? any can help me...

So much for my preconceived notion that availability would be an issue I just returned from Best Buy they had a large display in the front of the store as you walk in that was full as well 6-7 copies in there usual location in the games section. I'm sure it's because our city isn't very big, but still EBgames said they would have limited availbility not even any shelf copies oh well. I got the Gordon Freeman box they also had another one I'm not sure who the chick on the other box was anyone wanna clue me in?

I'm getting the same error. Really friggin ****in me off. No proxy here. I am on a University connection, so it's not like that's the problem either.

I think that Steam is just bogged down. Go to Steam's website. It is barely loading. Stupid Steam. Great idea Valve!

still workign fine here, completing the download of HL1:S had computer off for couple hours while actually sleeping.

im in ravenwhatever now. i baracaded myself in a room and put a bed, dresser, furnace, and the matress in front fo the door, then saved. jsut cause i could, hehe

Are the steam servers down? It was working fine this morning...

    • I really hope the author's health is ok. Squirreling away a official backup of this software. Looks like the internet archive already cached a copy as well - https://web.archive.org/web/20...ldbit-soft.fi/software.html
    • AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.
    • Never had a problem with TPM and started using that many years ago in Win10. Through several motherboards and OS versions, it just does what it does without complaint. My games library doesn't even know it's there. Secure boot does a lot more than support anti-cheat, as it came along long before anti-cheat software. I've used it religiously since before I started using TPM, and I always liked it for being able to nullify virus contagions that try their best to come in underneath the firmware during boot, so that the OS doesn't see them, etc. That is its purpose, imo. I'll never understand why people who elect to use another OS feel compelled to run down Windows... I guess they need to do that to feel secure about their choices? I run Windows because it supports all the software (including games) natively that I want to buy, and I've never had to run down another OS to make me feel better about it. (Although it's certainly possible to do that, of course...) Win10 is on a ventilator atm, and Win11 is very close to being free, and I finally got to stop running StartAllBack as I moved to the Experimental/Dev channel and my 26300.8553 build supports the moveable taskbar and it's running fine at the top of the screen! Finally, my last major dislike of Win11 is being rectified! So, I'm not at all surprised to see Win11's share of the Steam survey hitting 70%.
    • I can answer about the Linux bit. I only used AMD GPUs. I currently have a 9060XT (8GB) that fits my needs, I'm not a gamer, so I don't need that much GDDR. But lately, NVIDIA has grown a lot in the recent years. Oh, the horrors of NVIDIA drivers not working. But they have been getting better. I know a lot of members onm here that are running cachyOS and other distros, and are fine with a 4090/5090 variants. Really, though, I would stick with AMD variants.
    • Everything they say you can already do yourself on the registry by changing some things.
