Steam Problems.

I tried posting on planet halflife but I didn't get a response for two days.

When I start up steam I get:

'PreCondition Assertion Failed

Name: EntryIndexInBounds
Program: C:\program files\steam\steam.exe
File: Src\CacheFileFixedDirectory.cpp
Line: 722

uEntry uMaxEntries

(Press Retry to debug the application - JIT debugging must be enabled)

| Abort | Retry | Ignore |'

When I press abort steam closes, when I press retry steam crashes, and when I press ignore the message closes then a different message pops up again, it's a cycle of different messages that keeps repeating itself.

Does anybody know how can I fix this?

here's my Steam.log:

    Have you tried <a href='http://steampowered.com/forums/' target='_blank'>the official Steam forums,</a> where you'd get replies from people who actually know what they're talking about with Steam?

    Found a topic like mine: <a href='http://steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=36793' target='_blank'>http://steampowered.com/forums/showthread....?threadid=36793</a>.

    Thanks for reminding me, for some reason I forgot that STEAM had a website. Close/lock this topic.

    Glad to see Steam's official forums are actually serving their purpose. Your wish is my command.
