Does anyone else have the fragged cache file problem with HL 2 or other Steam games? 3/4 through HL 2 I got massive slow down and hang ups. I have a 1.8 GHz processor 702 MBs of RAM and a 64 MB graphics chip (its on board) with a 400 MHz clock and I ran everything on high through the whole game with 15-30FPS (pretty smooth) (AA 2x 800x600) but then I analyzed my hard drive with a defragmenter and it said all the HL 2 files were totally fragged. So I researched it and I found nothing. So I tried defragging it through Steam and it did nothing then I did a complete defrag with O&O defragger and it seemed to work. Anyone else have this problem? Valve really needs to get their engine and coding together.

I only have problems with HL2 cause I downloaded it. But after that it works ok.

There is a problem with some Steam clients. Cause is unknown, it depends on Steam client and the server you're connecting to.
