Is there a way to install Steam where it WILL NOT oerwrite the original files?

Yes. When I first installed Steam at home, it asked me if I wanted to remove the old files. When I installed Steam at work last night it didnt ask me but it left my old HL install alone.

I once had Steam before and used the CD-Kay I have - I had to create a new account, and now it says I cannot use my CD-Key - how do I do this now?????

Why did you have to create a new account? If you forgot the password, you can click "retrieve lost password".

I apparently forgot the username as well, because it didn;t alert me when I entered my normal ESMajor

It's been discovered that I no longer have access to the email address which I previously registered with. I found my CD-Key, but unfortunately the email address I registered with is now defunct. Does anyoneknow what I can do to retrieve this information so I may use Steam?

Uh, I think you're screwed. I heard something about how Valve'd replace your account if you sent them your manual. You'd prolly never see it again.

my HL didnt come with a booklet either! of course, my game came with a Mad-Catz Panther XL controller. Great for playing HL though!

I GOT MY ACCOUNT INFO FROM STEAM SUPPORT!
I was amazed they gave it to me with a new password.
Unfortunately it NOW makes no use because I cannot run any servers from my machine as I am behind a router which I do not know the login to... AND NIETHER DOES THE OWNER! (which I think he is lying, but I can;t prove it)

Coolfat - steam is the only way I can really run my own server - but tonight I discovered that my brother-in-law doesn;t even know the login for his router, so opening the ports for the router is useless anyways.
