I'm currently trying to obtain a working build of steam for XP myself, as I want to play some older games in my library but like I don't really know where to start.
I have lost confidence slightly though since the last updates of steam where they changed all of the login system and stuff. Before it appears you could have just spoofed some records to get it to work.
I'm wondering if it could be possible to maybe download the game files from a modern machine, copy over the files and somehow run it that way.
Would be cool if steam was like some other apps where you could just log in from online and download the apps from there to any OS.
