Fatalmasterpiece Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I haven't been able to run New Vegas for about 6 months now, and at this rate I won't be able to run Skyrim either. I can only access the internet via tether on my phone so I cannot use networking in safemode as it disables the software necisary for this. I don't think this is the source of my problem because Google shows hundreds of others with this unsolvable issue. Do I need to uninstall Steam? If so, will it delete all my game data? I've disabled my firewall (in services as well), I've replaced the .exe with a supposedly good one linked from the official Steam forums, I've deleted the ClientRegistry.blob file. Nothing works. Now it just gets to 26% and starts over then eventually shows me this... http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/1375/steamz.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrivener07 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Backup your game folders and reinstall Steam. Put game folders back where you found them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will ignore its existence but at any rate if you have a friend get the steam folder without any games installed and it should let you get back on to steam, Update you games go into offline mode. This is the most effective means and a pain in the rear end I realise Or Keep trying, you might get lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagrant0 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 And make sure that your ISP, or some other software doesn't block or throttle p2p connections. It's less common than it was before, but some ISPs are still picky about the types of data you are sending/receiving since p2p traffic tends to require more resources for the bandwidth than otherwise. But yes, it might be a good idea to contact Steam, if only to make sure that your account wasn't hacked/banned without your knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
