Aspire M3450 cannot play Portal 2

I have an Aspire M3450, when I try to play Portal 2 it crashes and starts, I'm sure it's a problem with the motherboard, it is a problem, others have as well.

I found the update of the BIOS on this site and used it, looks like the image below, it installed correctly showing BIOS version P01 - A4.

Needless to say that the problem still persists. For awhile, I could get Portal 2 to work properly with a program called CEG-Orochi, but recently the program has stopped working and I am back Portal 2 not starting any more.

In fact, I ran check the integrity of game Cache on Portal 2, after he replaced a single file, it worked.

I can actually run Portal 2 without CEG-Orochi now thanks to me updated the BIOS to try to solve this problem.

  • Cannot enter BIOS or Option of Boot to display on my desktop Acer Aspire M3450

    For the last few days I tried to access in the BIOS or The Boot Options screen by pressing the keys with " DEL " for BIOS and ' F12 ' to The Boot Options screen. Same pressing down both keys on my keyboard and switch to normal startup with Windows 10 logo screen and then type password. I'm sure you know that this office is not supported for parameters of the UEFI. I tried with Settings\Update and Security-Advanced Options- then have 6 names on the double column , but I'm not sure that one to take to solve the problem. Here are the 6 names below:

    System restore

    System Image recovery

    Startup Repair

    Command prompt

    Startup parameters

    Go back to the previous version

    Everything what I wan tis to solve two things by pressing the ekys for BIOS and the Boot Options screen. That's all that I need it. Or I need to reinstall the entire disk operating system Microsoft Windows 10 Home Premium 64?   Either way, my computer's desktop Acer Aspire M3450 game.

    Thank you

    It's a good thing I do not get out the my desktop's CMOS battery. Someone I know told me I 'Try to change the keyboard' Guess - it works now. The USB keyboard that I just bought does not work so I went back to the wireless keyboard that I used all the time. So now my problem is solved.

    Can I ask a question - why doesn't the USB keyboard support to accept that I press the key after the reboot for BIOS or Boot Display Options? Hope that someone here in this forum will answer for that.

    Thank you

  • OS Sierra: Cannot play audio via bluetooth are involved during airtime

    Cannot play audio via bluetooth speakers during airtime to my TV.

    Hey Buddy,

    According to the Toshiba DVD Player error message: are you trying to watch DVDs on an external monitor or TV?
    In your case, I will try to reinstall the DVD playback software. This means delete the current version and then restart your computer. Then download and install the latest software from Toshiba DVD player.

    But to be honest: it's that everything works with VLC media player as it s very big and small media player that can play all audio and video files. Isn t it? ;)

  • Windows Media Player cannot play audio files

    Hi, I have Toshiba laptop, this is my baby, and all of a sudden I can't play sounds! When I click to play a song in windows media player, it says:

    Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with the audio device. It might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it can be used by another program, or it may not work properly.

    I tried everything and I'm on my last nerve! Basically, I'm rubbish with computers, I do not understand this at all, I followed all the ways suggested by the section 'aid' in my computer and I can't always listen to 'The Feeling!' Please help, I'm going crazy here!

    Yes my friend. The computer world is really not easy to understand, and sometimes I wish that I could no longer live the island of computer.
    but you know, the development never stop.

    OK, now your problem; have you checked the Device Manager?
    You don't see any yellow exclamation next to the sound card?

    I think that you should first try reinstalling the audio driver. Of course, it s a very tips but especially it works essentially ;)

  • Satellite L505-10J - cannot play more than 30-60 min

    Hello

    I just bought the Toshiba L505-10 days last week and I'm really satisfied with my choice, but when I run a game like Counter Strike Source or Risen I have some strange problems. The first 30 to 60 Minutes are Ok, but then the sound starts cracking and my mouse stops (Razer Lachesis) shifts when I hold a key on the keyboard (for example, W to go forward). When I go to my office while playing this problem disappeared (I opened Notepad down W and moved the mouse. No problem at all). When I switch back is there once again. The only solution to this problem is to restart my computer. Then I can play the next 30-60 minutes before it starts all over.

    I have already reinstalled Windows 7, but the problem is still there.
    When I use my Touchpad instead of my mouse is the same thing. Cannot play more than 30-60 min...

    This is not acceptable, because I want to play games on my cell phone at any time.

    Hope someone can help me and sorry for my bad English, I'm from the Germany.

    Hello

    As I understand it, this problem occurs only playing games.
    There is no problem to use the laptop with another application.
