It would help if you posted a few details as to your operating system? What do you mean by attempted 5 times to install Steam? Why so many attempts?

I assume the message is appearing in Steam that you do not have enough space. But until you explain why it took 5 attempts to install Steam it is difficult to hazard a guess to your problem.

I would totally un-install Steam as if it took you 5 attempts to get it installed in the first place would seem to indicate that something is amiss somewhere.

Yes I know you had to install Steam to play L4D, I have the game myself, but the 5 attempts at Steam installation are a puzzle.

But I see your Acer is a laptop you might want to have a look here to see if your PC can handle the game. Can You run It?
