Just joking around :p
Normally when the steam apps wont load like that is because something else on steam is running already. Make sure to totally shutdown steam and restart your comp. Then try again.

The Obsidian installer does NOT auto-detect your directory, it's statically pointed to C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\.

Are you connected to the internet? This may be a problem.

Does anyone read directions anymore? Says right at the top of the installer.

and Correct to this person below. since it seems not alot of people take notice to the screen shot in detail lol.
