Just doing this now (had to delete a gig of music!), it's taking forever. On the bit where it tells you what it's installing, does it do HL2 and CS:S by default? It looked like I could select CS only, but it does HL2 anyway, right?

Hmmm, my laptop keeps shutting itself down when it does this Disk Cleanup thing. Does it about 20 minutes in too, which is none-too-handy.

Oh, and I've got a massive vertical fan standing behind the little desk I use today, so it doesn't overheat.

5 gig of files to clean up = bad, unless of course it was a 5 gig file in your recycle bin that you forgot to delete.

Doing a disk cleanup at the moment - takes forever but it'll make the defragment quicker, I hope.

Jesus, I think it found 5Gb of files to cleanup, and a few viruses!

5,xxx,xxx Kb is 5Gb, yeah?

Thats what you get for being silly enough to uninstall in the first place, defrag, scan disk and try again.

or smash your crappy laptop up and gt a real computer.

Nope, nothing doing. I've tried 5 times now, and each time it comes up with an error message, then shuts down my PC, then I have to spend ages sorting out the mess left behind by a dodgy installer. Piece of crap. I'll try again in a month.

It needs HL2 files to run so yes.
