scalliano , next time install xp ,and your needed software , then take a backup from your complete Cdrive , when xp goes down , just put in a floppy and recover winxp. Cheers, I'll keep that in mind, GK  |

Cheers, I'll keep that in mind, GK If that gives you a problem, just copy the wpa.dbl file. That is the one that XP uses in activation. you can then install xp again, and just copy back the wpa.dbl file back in. This works, unless you've changed hardware. |

I have a comp on Home and one on Pro. They both work well, but everytime I change hardware on the Home one I have to piss about. I can't get it 'sorted' I intend to use Pro from now on. (not saying where it came from)

Valve does not suck they have proublems but they dont suck. Anyone who cant see that halflife 2 was a good game is on crack. i know some hardcore I.D fanboys cant abide the idea of other companys making good first person shooters but really this is a stupid topic.

Whether or not Half-Life 2 is a good game is not the issue here. Whether or not being forced to "authenticate" a game I've already paid for with a program that can only be used over the internet is good or not is.
I'm in the same boat with Phoenix, on that end.

The red colouring was purely for emphasis. I suppose I could have also used "BASTARDS!!" but I like red.

Thou, Nature, art my goddess; to thy law
My services are bound. Wherefore should I
Stand in the plague of custom and permit
The curiosity of nations to deprive me,
For that I am some twelve or fourteen moonshines
Lag of a brother? Why bastard? Wherefore base?
When my dimensions are as well compact,
My mind as generous, and my shape as true,
As honest madam's issue? Why brand they us
With base? With baseness? Bastardy? Base, base?
Who in the lusty stealth of nature take
More composition and fierce quality
Than doth within a dull, stale, tired, bed
Go to th' creating a whole tribe of fops
Got 'tween asleep and wake? Well, then,
Legitimate Edgar, I must have your land.
Our father's love is to the bastard Edmund
As to th' legitimate. Fine word, "legitimate"!
Well, my legitimate, if this letter speed
And my invention thrive, Edmund the base
Shall top th' legitimate. I grow, I prosper.
Now, gods, stand up for bastards!.gif)

I think overall the system is great, but at the same time Vavle is shooting themselves in the foot because recently there have been some hardcore cracks out for it that enable you to snag the entire Steam library, kinda defeats this whole damn registration/validation requirement.

I'm sorry but i can't this 1 get away. WHY DID U CALLED THE VALVE GUYS "BASTARDS"? BECAUSE YOU ARE DAMN ... ... ... right... and wrong...  The download-per-play system is just SICK! I Admit: i had to crack at first not because it was illegal, but because i had internet problems! Thos guys got sick with all that money. BUT IT'S NO EXCUSE TO NOT LIKE THE GAME! The game is cool. I played it, so i can give an oppinion. But if don't play it just because of the d-p-p system or because of their problems, than that's stupid.  |

My reasons for disliking Valve are rather petty, but I do hate Steam and some of the ideology behind it with a passion. If ever I do buy Half-Life 2, I'm going to get it for the X-Box on the principle that I don't need to be online to play an off-line single-player game, and I am hopeful that it won't feature Steam in any way, shape, or form.
