BornToDie1955 Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Hayabusa & my son have happen the same "bug" 's steam : 4 hours later, they fund a bug and updated the new steam update but long to download (like the squelet toward his screen computer : where is this picture ?) and your steam reworks again : bad idea to make auto update this steam programmers... Egidio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayabusa Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Yeah, I had to use Control Panel to restore Steam to a older update. I used the "Repair" option in the window that pops up after clicking on the Add/Remove option. (I'm using Windows XP Pro, so I don't know what kind of options other have, but this worked for me) After restarting Steam it then updated to the non-bobo version. All is well now.
