Hi. Today I upgraded to 20mbps with my ISP and now I can't seem to play any of my Steam games. I have several icons for games and they do not work. I had to sign in and I can't find my games listed. No library listed at the top left. If I didn't have about 80 games, I would just forget Steam, there are too many problems with it. So, any ideas as to what I need to do so that I might be able to play one of my steam games? duh

Hi Terri824. Did you or do you have to maybe re-download the client?

I sure hope you get it figured out and can play your games.

In your steam folder in your program files.... you should see a steam.exe ... click on that and see if you can get in that way

If I remember correctly, you have to access your library through the Steam Client.

I go into Steam almost everyday so it was updating on a regular basis and I could go into it with my desk icon. However I can't go into my games either way, signing in or w/the icon. When I sign into Steam, there is no list for my Library. I can get into my Wish List, so I'm at least acknowledged but can't play any games. Wish I had left Steam alone, they have a lot of problems. Maybe I'll have better luck tomorrow.

Winfrey, I can't go into Steam that way I've tried. I have no problem getting on Steam, it's just not showing any of my games.

Oldbroad, I have re-downloaded the client but still not having any luck. I'm sure it will get straightened out soon. (I hope.) grin
Of course if it isn't, I will get more done around the house.

Have you contacted Steam tech support - such as it is - yet?

Have you tried un-installing and re-installing Steam? wave

I found this:

Steam

On the right side you will see a link to community discussions. Try posting there. Maybe someone has had the same problem and can help.

Thanks everyone. I posted my issue last night on Steam and this morning it is up and running. No reason given but at least it works.

Good! I use steam but I must say sometimes it's a pain in the but. They should make it that you can just log into steam.. and if you have games you would be able to see them in a separate link provided instead of making you you load the client.

Couldn't agree more, Winfrey.

Do you shut down your computer at night? Maybe the restart did it. Glad it's working!

I do shut my pc down at night but this is the first time this has happened. In the past when I'd click on the icon it would take me right to my account. I wish I could pull all my games off from Steam.

I suspect it's something to do with getting a new public IP number after you changed your type of ISP account.

I agree with you Winfrey, many problems with Steam.
Jenny, I think you're correct. I tried to send a fax on two different machines, not gonna happen. Don't know how to fix this as of yet.
