okay, i know this topic has nothing to do with anime but please bear with me. I used a torrent client to download the game half life 2, and extracted the files using WinRAR, so when i tried to play the game, this error message appears, "Unable to get IFileSystem interface from filesystem factory". I have no idea what to do next, so if u have any helpful comment please reply soon. thx

Ok, here is what you do. Take the file, right click and hit delete. Then go onto your desktop, right click on your recycling bin and click empty. If it asks you if you are sure, click yer. Than get in your car, go to the store, and buy the game. IM JUST KIDDING!! Here is what you do. First off you need to make sure that you have all of the files. you should have had one rar file, which when opened extracted 112 rar files. If you did then you have all the files. Next you create a shortcut for the exe and place it on your desktop. Then right click the shorcut and go to properties. Once you are there add " -steam" to the target box (excluding the quotation marks" remember to put a space in front of the hyphen. For example. In your target box you will see something similiar to:

"C:Documents and SettingsTonyDesktophalf life 2hl2.exe"

just add the " -steam" to the end. It should then look like:

"C:Documents and SettingsTonyDesktophalf life 2hl2.exe" "-steam"

That will fix it aslong as you have all the files.

dude where did u get that torrent and where did u get the cd key?

-- ijhkl (fghj@fdzg.com), January 22, 2005.

You dont need a cd key if you download the torrent because there is a no cd-key fix out for the game. All that you need are the install files.
