So I deleted all downloaded update files, so that I could try to start from the beginning again. I tried running Steam as an administrator. I tried running Steam.exe in compatibility mode (some advices said the problem was gone by using windows XP compatibility mode). I think it should take a while to read all the files and check this. In less than 1 second, a message pops up saying the files are veryfied. I veryfied the integrity of game cache (by right clicking Bioshock Infinite > properties > local files) * Here something weird happens. making sure the windows fire wall was not blocking Steam. changing the download region on Steam (I'm from Brazil, changed it to US). reinstall steam (deleting everything, minus the steamapps folder and the steam.exe. powering off and on the modem and the router, to make sure it's not a connection problem. So I decided to try to fix this to make the download work normally.Īfter some google research, I found many simillar cases and followed their advices. it went back a few % and kept crashing near 40%. But I noticed that one time, the progress didn't restart from where it stopped. I did this whole process a couple more times, hoping that the download progress would keep advancing. And one more time, the process was still showing in the Task Manager, I had to restart the PC. After a while, the program just crashed again. This time I was following the progress and I noticed that at one time, the download stopped and there was this message on steam: "BUSY WRITTING TO DISK".

Since I couldn't end it and also couldn't restart the program, I had to restart the PC.Īfter the computer restarted, I ran Steam again and the download kept going from the point it had stopped (around 35%). Again, the steam process was still showing in the Task Manager Processes. But after a few hours, when I checked again, the Steam software was closed. It was downloading normally and I thought everyting was ok.

Since I couldn't end it and also couldn't restart the program, I had to restart the PC.Īfter the computer restarted, I ran Steam again and it showed that the download started. But the steam process was still showing in the Task Manager Processes. It stayed that way for many minutes (between 20 and 30 minutes) so I thought the program was frozen and I tried to close it. Steam showed the status: "PREALLOCATING". I bought the game yesterday and everything went fine in the buying process and the option to update the game showed up. Hi guys, I'm having a big problem trying to install Bioshock Infinite Burial at Sea - Episode 2 (DLC).
