Steam

[E.Kilby]

I know this isn't to do with FL but I'm sure you could help me.


When I came back from holiday I had a problem of Steam having connection problems and then I re-installed steam and gmod.

About 2-3 weeks I'm having the same problems and I re-installed steam and its still not working and my router if fine (BT-Infinity) and all other devices are fine but its just steam, I asked my friend who lives in the same village and has steam and gmod and he has the same broadband as mine and he is not having any problems?


If you could help me that would be brill !!!!!

Method 2 worked for me when I had the problem about 5 months ago.

I did number 2 and it didn't work and I don't really under stand 3?

Basically, Run Command Prompt as administrator
Then copy the first one and right click and paste it into the command prompt (As CTRL + V doesn't work in command prompt) and hit enter. Do this for all of the commands.
1. "bcdedit /deletevalue nointegritychecks"
2. "bcdedit /deletevalue loadoptions"
3. "bcdedit /debug off"
4. "bcdedit /deletevalue nx"

Then restart your computer and try playing garry's mod

Don't worry if this doesn't work, I have a few more options you can try

Gmod isn't installed as I had to delete steam and then tat deleted steam and what are the other options?

[Bobby]

End all the steam processes in task manager and then run steam as administrator
