Sounds like a good post for the Steam support forums. This is a Halflife Coders mailing list, not steam support.
Sorry to sound rude, but that's the facts, jack ;).

I have tried other forums but ave not had any luck in getting answers to this problem yet, so here goes:
I have a rather basic system - Win2K, PIII 650, 192M Ram, 64MB video card, and cable modem.
When steam is sitting idle, my CPU utilization is near 0, but I can't load any programs or applications because the system is grinding my HD.
When loading CS through Steam, my committed Memory usage (in task manager) goes from 90MB to well over 250MB, and sometimes peaks at over 300MB and my Hard drive light stays lite constantly. When enterring a game, it tries to load and verify server variable and times out consistantly but occasionally actually loads the game. Forget loading DOD!!!
What are the system requirements (Steampoered.com has some listed, but they can't be accurate)? Is there a memory leak of some sort? I installed the full (750M) file and trying to access servers running standard maps with low pings. I am not trying to do anything unusual, yet.
Any ideas? Do you need more info? Has anyone else seen this? Hey Valve, what's up?
