Disconnecting steam to play game on just pc

[higgs66]

Hi Folks

is there any way that i can disconnect stream and just play fm2012 on my pc the same as the older version. My internet explorer is freezing and the only thing i can but it down to is that the stream is still running in the background and clogging up my broadband as i am only able to get 1mb speed and i didnt have this problem before i installed fm12. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Steam needs to run to play Football Manager 2012 but you can put it into offline mode.

Steam uses hardly any bandwidth or PC processing power...

Try using a non-AIDS browser and see if it helps.

It's probably not Steam's fault.. You just have a horrible, slow, dirty browser. Get a quicker one and you should be fine.

EDIT: It's a common mistake to think that your browser is slow because of your lack in 'bandwidth', however, it is generally down to your choice in browser. Try something like Google Chrome, one of the fastest browsers around.

I emailed sega about the same thing last week, i was told to make sure the game was fully updated in steam, and then to click offline mode in the preferences tab in steam. It works offline fine for me now!
