steam problems
Kyle Guzman wrote in :
Does any one know what will happen if you reistall steam, will it delete your friends list ?? It should not, I believe your friends list is stored online. You can go to http://www.steamcommunities.com and login to your steam accoun there, you should see all your friends listed there. Try it from a different system if you're really worried, but as I recall the Friends list is stored online, not on your computer. -- -A. |

ERROR: hl2.exe has stopped working
I've got the fix.... Saw this somewhere dont remember who to give credit too =/ "BEFORE you do this, make sure this is actually the problem. One easy way to tell is by trying to access the "Network and Sharing Center" or by looking at the network icon in your taskbar. If you cant get into the network center or if the network icon has a red X and youre sure you are connected to something, then you have a WMI problem." ---------------------------------------------------------- For users with Windows Vista Ultimate or Business editions: (Credit goes to blueshot from MS forums) Right click "Computer" Click "Manage" Double click "Users and Groups" Click "Groups" Right click "Administrators" Click "Add to group..." Click "Add" Click "Advanced" Click "Find Now" Double click "Local Service" Click "Ok" "NT Authority\Local Service" should show up in the list now Click "Ok" Close Computer Management and reboot. ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- For users with the Home editions of Vista: (Credit goes to SWAndersen) Go to the command prompt (hit run and type in cmd.exe) and type this in: net localgroup Administrators /add Local Service (optional) then you can type this in: net localgroup Administrators and if LOCAL NT AUTHORITY/SERVICE is listed, then it worked. Now go reboot. *NOTE: THE REBOOT IS NECESSARY OTHERWISE EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE WILL GO TO WASTE * -- tremonti92 |

ERROR: hl2.exe has stopped working
Alright dude, ur wish.... But let me remind everyone else... This method has worked for EVERYONE who has tried it b4, and they are having NO problems.... They've reported NO such thing as security holes or things like that.. Security hole or not... if u have a good antivirus or firewall, it's good enough... Everyone who "doesn't want to take the risk" can live with "hl2.exe has stopped working".... Like it or not... I'm just trying to help... -- tremonti92 |

He originally posted some fix for HL2. --quote-- Right click "Computer" Click "Manage" Double click "Users and Groups" Click "Groups" Right click "Administrators" Click "Add to group..."

Actually his suggestion to open a hole in your network security wasn't that great of a suggestion. It may fix the problem, but could cause others. Would be better to ask Valve support for assistance, just to double-check and see if that's the only solution. Besides, he types you as "u" and your as "ur" (which is hallarious, because "ur" isn't your, it's actually an abbreviation of "you're", so he's saying "you are wish...." in a literal sense of the word), do you really want to take any advice from him without doing a bit of your own research first? (Likewise, I'd hope no one here takes any of my advice blindly without double-checking.) -- -A. |
