Hey well, recently I have been using steam and my friends list is screwy. I cant press friends or ill get auto-exited out of steam, i cant use shift+tab either. Ive tried reinstalling steam and a bunch of other things. Anyone know whats wrong or how to fix it?

 

Which steam r you using? the Old one or the new Beta one?

And when this happens and you go into the task manager processes AFTER is steam on there?

Also what Operating system you running?

have you tried steam forums?

I searched for "overlay crash friends" and found 14 topic only made today

seems like a big problem

 

main reason(the thing they all have the same): Battlefield BC2.

apperntly when you get an achievement there is a change in a text file

which makes the overlay unstable

 

2 best fixes I pulled out of it:

1)

Try to boot cs:s while steam is offline mode and go online when cs:s is running

if it gives an error, close the game, start it in online mode and hope for the best

2) try deleting steam and only installing css, and no other games

 

more I couldnt find, but I`ll keep my eye on the techforum for you

 

edit: steam/valve worker/moderator is deleting most of the threads, he merged all helpfull posts into one topic

but the link he gave is dead, I`ll try to reach him
