I got a new PC.

Mw2 won't install. Steam is installed, i put the disks in, it logs me in and tries to download?

Why the **** is steam trying to make me download it when it's on the disc?

Steams so ******* shit.

But so is mw2, so it suits.

If anyone can help, cheers.

Nos.

Are you running the auto install from the disc? I have an issue where mine doesn't auto install so I have to run the autoinstall off the disc

To get help and vent my anger.

Do you have any solution? If not, why post here?

While the main game is on the disk not the updates that came out it was published, whenever I reinstall mw2 it always downloads about a 1GB update, which is normal.

Right click the game, delete local content, then try installing from disc again.
Metro 2033 did the same thing to me when i was installing it from disc.

Also, kaka nothing wrong with venting a little anger
