Title: Question about getting downloaded steam game to work
Post by: Rally Pig on October 19, 2008, 10:11:12 PM

(sorry if i posted in the wrong area) I need a little help getting a game that i downloaded from steam to work. I downloaded farcry (the first one) from steam. when i go to open it through steam it gives me the option to launch the game or configure audio/video settings. if i hit launch nothing happens. if i try to open it from the icon on the desk top it will give me the cd key, ill hit next and nothing happens. I tried hitting the "activate a product on steam" button, putting in the cd key and it tells me its wrong...im sure theres an issue with steam, but wanted to see if there was something simple im missing here

tried a uninstall/reinstall... and nothing but the key looks like its missing a character: where steam is saying it should be AAAA-BBBB-CCCC-DDDD-EEEE its actually AAA-BBBB-CCCC-DDDD-EEEE

lol def not a do you have the hardware to run it problem if i can run CSS and TF2 at high graphics no problem
