1151584 2010-11-09 03:51:00 Hi,

I got a copy of Black Ops today, followed the install instructions as per normal, get to a screen saying STEAM is updating and thats it.

Sometimes it gets to 4% after 10 mins then goes back to 0%. It is not say unresponsive etc, just doesn't update.

The game box says you must have a STEAM account to install, I have 1 and even made a new one, but I don't even get to sign-in, all it says is "updating 0%"

ideas please...

Could try reinstalling stream.

1151588 2010-11-09 09:08:00 steam being slow and the servers being under strain are different. steam is always slow. the servers aren't often under strain.
or something, I don't know. I

And I gave him a link, if nothing else.

1151590 2010-11-09 22:49:00 Thanks for the replies..took 3 hours to get STEAM updated! Quite often it would get to 4 - 6% then do nothing, it got to 19% once and then done nothing - not once did it ever say it was not-responding. The time it did work it actually did say it was not responding for about 5 mins then finally done the update. I'm lost for reasons just happy the damn thing actually went in the end :) toonttm (14853)
