Half Life 2 , 5cds unto 1 dvd ?

[Grumpy]

Im doing the DVD conversion now! Its got the msi file so its should be relatively easy! But at this stage you will still need CD1 in the drive to play so wether or not its worth doing! And yes luciel you need to log into steam every time you need to play! Well at least I do as mine hasnt technically been activated as it was all jammed up but still lets my play?
I posted what happened with my activation into BW's HL2 thread earlier but this is what it said:

"Your subscription to Half-Life 2 Retail Standard has not
been completed, because Steam is currently too busy to
process the transaction.
However, you can play Half-Life 2 Retail Standard in the
meantime, and we will get back to you with the results of
your transaction as soon as we are able to process it."


P.S: Forgot to mention it took nearly and hour to get to that message!
