    Steam won't nag you if there are no updates, but if don't want it to update at all, just set it to offline mode first. Then you can get rid of AV and FW, and just play as usual.

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    What you can do is install etw on the laptop, then copy the steam folder over.

    Put steam in offline mode and bam!

    It won't patch, but you can simply patch on the laptop then re copy over. It is legal, and it should work, no probs.

    I'm having a problem where my password gets me into the Steam application but not the Steam webpage. Anyone else run into this?

    Question - can I have ETW install do a different folder than the steamapps one? I had really taken a liking to having a "Total War" folder with all the TW games in one spot. Plus, it'd be easier to get to for modding...

    No, you can only do that if you buy the real CD version. You would then import the game to steam from its location.
    You can move the whole steam folder to another drive/ install steam on another drive if you
    don't have enough space on C:/.

    Question: You get to select a nickname and you have to give an email address. When playing the demo the email is displayed as player name. Shouldn't that be the nick displayed? Am I doing sth wrong?

    If you entered your info right, that probably is just a quirk of the demo.

    Does anyone know if pre-loading will start by itself when the time comes, or do you have to click a button?
