StateCop Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 http://steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=44186 If you get a crash after restarting/relogging into Steam!!! If after the latest update, you get an error looking something like this... steam.exe (main exception): Win32 StructuredException at 0163048B: Attempt to write to virtual address 2439276314 without appropriate access rights. STEAM.EXE - APPLICATION ERROR The instruction at "0x1000ecd" referenced memory at "0x016470c0." The memory could not be "read." Here is the fix Go into your Steam folder, and delete the file "ClientRegistry.blob". Start Steam, and it should work. This is a known issue with the Steam developers, and I am sure they will be working on a fix to push out soon. In the mean time, an apology for this error :^( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nil8 Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Thanks statecop. Once again steam messes up, once again someone in the community fixes it. Anyway, thanks a lot. Now I can play again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-TK421--Bane Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 How about "Steam temporarily unavailable". I just got that message 5 minutes ago - after 99% of the update has been completed! To make things funnier, I already updated Steam about 8 hours before that.And earlier in the day, the update would come to 99% then start over. After doing so 3 times (!) it would say ... "Steam temporarily unavailable. Please try again later"!!! Fortunately, Statecop's solution worked (thanks, man).I went out for only a few hours, now I come back and it's a mess again.Don't you just "love" Steam?
