You cannot obtain windows XP without buying it... atleast not legally. Also, are you right clicking on steam and choosing "Run as administraitor"?

ive tried that, but then it has a password, which im trying to figure it out.


Thank you guys for the help, im hopeing to get my cpu running so i can come play with you guys on my good pc.


btw on the main computer in my house, it has the same error code, but it is a 2005 hp pivilion cpu, and it has norton .

could norton be interfearing with both computers?

You may want to try completly reinstalling steam (as in delete the steam folder)
It can be a pain in the ass to reinstall your games, so backup everything under your username (or at least your game gcfs) typically its faster/easier to just move them to your desktop. Completly delete steam and then reinstall. Drop your games back in and load up steam (you may need to delete clientregistry.blob for them to show up)

yeh, i bought it to college with me, havent open and i open it to find out that it wasn't working well.

i ran the network off my freinds internet connection and not the schools, so then i could get a good connection, then i ran it off the schools and it work.

i might upgrade my graphics card when it comes xmas, money is tight now now that i'm in college.
