Well, this morning I bought TF2 and Gmod, yey! It took like 5 minutes to download as I already had TF2 installed from when I had a guest pass. Anyways, I start up Gmod fine and try to launch singleplayer, Gmod closes due to some error, next time I will start on flatgrass instead of 2fort. I try again it says this:

Long story short, I get this error when I try to play Gmod or TF2.

Any ideas? :(

Paw, you know NOTHING. Go away and stop trying to help people. Also, try restarting steam, it seems to be an error with steam, to me.

I played TF2 with my guest pass though, how could it uninstall part of itself?

Double post for small bump, anyways, I tried marcem's idea and steam says it can't shut down because it is running some applications, which it isn't. I'm going to restart my computer and then try.
