<div class="IPBDescription">I can't fix it</div> I downloaded steam and it doesn't want to work. For some reason it won't let me use anything but software mode. I have reinstalled everything, including windows 98. I saw on a post in a different fourm that I could use DXdiag to get my system info. This is what it gave me:
