This is mostly to Jshackles, but if other people have had this happen that could chime in that would be awesome too. It's making market purchases kinda tough.

Has anyone had this happen in enhanced steam? The market page is all jumbled up and in the search I'm missing the links to change the page. I'm running firefox 28 and enhanced steam 5.9.1.

Edit: I have ruled out other plugins being the issue. It only happens with ES enabled.

Yeah, the market page is also jumbled for me in Firefox. The lack of page select isn't a bug, though; it's rendered redundant due to the "Enable continuous scrolling of search results" option and returns if you disable said feature.

Is there a way to read the message history between you and your friends?

Theoretically Valve should be able to provide you with a log file, but otherwise no.

yea pretty much

also i was lucky i hadn't done the .25 and .50 cheevos

I have the United Federation Token achievement, but can still earn a bit of cash. Have been looking forward to playing Papers Please again anyways, this is just extra incentive.

Seems like it's hard enough to beat the game normally though -- I'm on day 5 and it's a struggle to be fast enough to make enough money. :}

The key is organizing your desk effectively for efficient information.

I would carefully set up my desk every morning before starting the clock.

I was always able to keep my head just above water without taking any extra handouts. If you are having trouble, I believe you can cycle your heat in such a way to save money.
 
You sold your OR already? You know the 880gtx is now rumored for june right..

Going to put it up in the morning, but I'm already looking :p Should probably wait but I am an inpatient man. Either way, going to sell the Rift while it's still worth an absurd amount. Whether I end up getting a Ti this week will be decided in my dreams :p How is the 880 supposed to compare to the Ti?

Going to be a few days either way as once I sell the Rift the money has to be cashed from my paypal to bank account. Unless newegg supports paypal, have never used it with them.

Thanks, that's really unbelievable. I use it to send my friends Steam keys I have left over, maybe not such a good idea. If they don't claim them right away we both won't know what game it actually was after a while.

Wasn't sure where to post this but hopefully someone can help us from here...

Looks like my games storage drive is on it's way out. It spontaneously disappeared from windows yesterday and wasn't recoginised in the bios upon reboot either. Feared the worst but I took it out and stuck it in an external HD caddy and was then recognised by my laptop thankfully. Crystal Disk Info is cautioning about it's health though, so I'm currently transferring all the content to another drive. Keeps slowing down to a crawl and I've had to skip 4 files as they just wouldn't copy but it's 98% complete now otherwise, so fingers crossed. I've written down the names of the files which wouldn't budge and will try again after the full transfer has finished.

The drive contained all my Steam, Origin and Uplay games as well as my Steam program install. Origin and Uplay clients are installed on the C drive, however. Once the transfer to the new drive is done, if I just pop it back into my gaming PC and rename the new drive S:\ (which the drive on it's last legs was) will it just carry on from where the other drive left off?

Cheers for any help.

Thanks Jase. Big relief. Was beginning to run out of space so was planning to swap the seemingly knackered drive out soon anyway. This has just forced my hand I suppose, even if it did scare the heck out of me.

All of the content apart from the 4 skipped files have now copied over anyway. One of the files is fc3_main.dat at 3.5gb. So obviously Far Cry 3's main file. Just trying it again now and it keeps getting stuck at 98% so looks like I'll have to redownload that.

20-25% faster, likely the same price if not lower.

Uggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggh.

When is the expected first news? Really want to upgrade, but given the ti came out 5 months ago it probably is nearing time for a refresh :/ Suppose a month or two won't be death.

I think you mean L4D2.

And yes, that is how steam sharing works, its my fave feature of steam now.

k so why can't he even see my games

Did you authorise his account on his pc? You have to log in once on his PC.

Yea hes under authorized, i gave him my password and stuff and he logged in to my account, hes under authorized and so am I

Simply just log in to your account is not enough. You or your friend have to log in to you account and go to the Family settings in the settings windows to authorize his computer
 
Common sense has prevailed and I will wait for the 880 given it's rumored to be so close. Hell, by then I might even be able to get two :p Will be nice to be at the true top end.

And I'm loving the dropping SSD prices, the future is beautiful <3

i feel like i'm starting to understand the milamber way of life a bit too much for my own sanity

Might as well give it to them. These win conditions are pretty hard for normals.

My dog was murdered by a 3.5mm audio port and I will not rest until the standard is dead
So these new GPU cards are my first experience in being a generation behind. Meh. I won't be bothered, so as long as my games play well. I hope, heh.
