Check game cache (CRC check of installed files) after new install
Sometimes it happens that after installing a new game thru Steam you have some file corruption. You can perform an integrity check of the game cache.
Even if the game cache is not corrupt, it sometimes pays of to also check the file cache fragmentation.
Verify integrity of game cache:
1.Load Steam
2.From the Library section, right-click on the game and select Properties from the menu.
3.Select the Local files tab and click the Verify integrity of game cache... button.
4.Steam will verify the game's files - this process may take several minutes.
5.Once the process is completed, the Check Window will automatically exit.
If any corruption is found, Steam will re-download any of the files that failed the CRC.
