lo.
k, this morning i was happily playing cs. my face looked something like this->

then i exited the server to go out. on returning home i went to play abit more.
only to recieve this message:

Name: No children still registered
Program: C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe
File: \p4clients\rel_beta\Projects\Common\Misc\MultiFieldBlob.cpp
Line: 2394

m_uNumRegisteredChildren == 0

Abort, Retry and Ignore (the buttons to press)

to me it seems as though ive been doing something with children

anyone shed some light on this?? i done a full norton scan aswell and it found nothing so no virus/trojan etc.

can i be really patronising and ask if you've just like, closed steam down and then restarted and reloaded steam? :S ? (can sometimes be the simple things :lmfao:

yeah i did that several times, no joy.
but after reading the steam forums i found one which is about this error.
apparently 90% of ppl are getting it :/
they havent said HOW to fix it yet, doesnt help atall.

Whenever you get strange system-type Steam error message shutdown Steam and delete the ClientRegistry.blob file in your Steam folder.

Start Steam wait an indeterminate amount of time for a small download to happen and Robert's yer Dad's brother.

He isn't 10, but he looks about 12.

ive seen others talk about this problem...steam knows it exists and they have no solution for it yet...just another bug in the biggest gaming catastrophe ever...
