2 Days ago, my steam was working all fine, no problems in logging in, no problems in loading up the games, and stuff like that. But yesterday when i tried to log in, entered my ID and password, steam stopped responding. Tried dragging it all over the screen, didn't work. I thought it might be some temp problem, but i'm still experiencing it today. So any idea how to fix this?

p.s. Re-installing is my last option, as i'll lose all the games and i'll have to re-download it all again. It's a pain in the ass for me with the 512 kb/s connection.

How many things do you have running at the time of starting?

if it were hacked, he would just get a response saying password is wrong, its obviously a bug in steam, you can just copy the game files out and then reinstall steam and copy them back, if you wish to reinstall, but i think there is a file you can delete to get steam to run an update/bugfix

Before reinstalling, copy/move your games data folders to another spot, then after reinstalling put them back. That way you shouldn't have to re-download all the files.

I did install Steam over my old Folder the other day and had all game data available and working.

If you do not want to roleplay, log off. Remember that "do not force RP" does NOT mean you can refuse to interact with other players.

That happens to me sometimes, when launching steam or a game, it has like 50% chances of freezing  :neutral:

Oh well, i just tried re installing everything. Now I'm able to log in but... It asks me for PC Verification and after verifying, it stops responding again.

You could just wait like 5 minutes. It happens to me all the time when I login. Dunno why though.

Go to the folder you've installed Steam (usually C:\Program Files\Steam\) and delete file ClientRegistry.blob
This often fixes issues like this.
