Odd thing is happening. I built a new computer and installed Alan Wake but cannot get it to play off of Steam because it just shuts itself off after the Remedy logo clip plays (to see what the startup is supposed to look like, watch this). No message that says it stopped working, no freezing, it...

I have adopted a fairly old IT philosophy of 'If its not broken, don't fix it' when it comes to Windows 10. After all, the only 'valuable' stuff on your computer are documents and emails which you spent time on - if these are 'lost' there is a cost to recover this data. So - for the past...

Hello. I installed this update and now Kaspersky won't load. Anybody else having the same issue? Any suggestions gratefully received

Well, Microsoft graciously updated my computer to the creators update today. Curiously, they now name Windows Defender "Windows Defender Antivirus."I was under the impression it was already an anti-virus. Anyhow, that's a moot point since I'm using Norton Security. So far, computer seems normal...
