    OK. I just installed the hardware and booted into my existing Vista install. Here's the early results:

    Old System
    Athlon 64 X2 4200+
    2G of DDR 400 RAM
    8800GT 512MB

    3DMark06:

    New System
    Athlon 64 X2 6000+
    2G of DDR 1066 RAM
    8800GT 512MB

    I'm seriously considering reloading Vista clean with fresh drivers. Not sure if I'm happy yet with my results.

    Steam not installing L4D2

    Hey guys...

    I got the Left 4 Dead 2 DVD yesterday, installed Steam then Activated the Left 4 Dead 2 through Activate a Product option.
    Now I have Left 4 Dead 2 on my games library so i right clicked it and Clicked install but Steam is Downloading the whole game as I have the installion files in the DVD. My net speed is not fast and even though i have the files in the DVD downloading is just waste of time.

    So please if there is any way I could Install it through Disk...Do lets me know

    Thanks

    PS: I've posted this on Steam L4D2 forum but no reply yet...

    What happens if you just double click on it instead of right clicking?

    Same thing downloads. Thanks for the reply though made it work now.


    Anyone else facing this issue all you have to do is Add non-steam game go to the L4D2 DVD add setup.exe (steam setup) and when you double click it through the game library it would install L4D2.
