If a while back I wanted to put some games off steam in there, however, the games are not opening from there and I can't remove their presence in this list. Is there something I can do?

  • options missing from the start menu in the game of 4 elements

    When I get timed out at level 3 of the game, a window opens stating I can go to 'options' in the menu start and change fashion casual., except 'options' are not in the start menu.  I went to Playrix and Xbox, uninstalled and reinstalled the game and options is still missing in the menu.  Xbox gave me a toll-free number to use, but I thought I'd try first online help.

    Not sure why a program error would be referred to Xbox. It's something that was missing in the way of original game when it was out. This is not a conversion to windows games problem. Options disappeared forever...

  • Start Freecell & select the game number

    How can I prevent the Freecell from a game at the opening. I want to participate in the trafficking of the games in order

    Hi Jim catfish.

    By default when you open the game FreeCell, it will open a game at random; you will not be able to get the game to open it in the order. This is normal and you will not be able to change the settings for it.

    To play the game in sequence, you need to open FreeCell click on file and click on the selection set or press F3 and enter the number sequence you want to play.

    I hope this helps.

  • HP envy m6 hp divided start and divide the game

    Hello
    My Hp had two symbols of Hp on its splash screen for the past month and it does not seem like a problem.
    I downloaded steam yesterday and during the execution of a game (TF2), he had the same problem split screen (identical to the commissioning model.)
    I tried to restore my computer laptop for when I updated to windows 8.1 but that did not fix the problem.
    The screen is great for any other desktop apps etc work fine.
    The screen is divided into four. Two sets of filters, then two screens half on the right.
    Anyone know a workaround?
    Much appreciated,
    Jack

    I know this post is a bit old but I just fell on the same problem on my laptop (m6 1205dx Envy). After one day it suddenly divided into only 4 screens as the Photo posted. The warranty has just expired so I took to a local PC repair shop and told me that the graphics card was good, but the screen had to be replaced. The quote I received was for $ 160 and work about $ 200 for a new screen! plus tax I was looking at over $ 400 only, I went and bought a new laptop instead, because I was taking courses online and could not be without. It was an Asus - very cheap - and was not as nice as envy. In addition, I had just dropped over $ 700 on this laptop a year earlier. PC Repair man AND the Frys guy who sold me my new laptop is difficult to replace the screen and the computer is pretty much a lost cause after that the screen turns off. Buuuut, I ordered a new screen anyway and seen a vid from youtube (check laptopscreen.com) on how to to replace and it seemed easy so I started to take off the old screen. Well, I noticed that it was not plugged into the socket (from the screen for the rest of the computer) very well so I fixed it and re-recorded it. After that the screen worked fine. I returned the other laptop, canceled the order for a new screen, restored my data files to my desire and a mere 12 hours later... I'm exhausted. Even if the screen needs to be replaced - its easy and is only about $55. IM horrible with computers and I always got. Just be careful and watch the videos. It may just be that the PIN is loose. Hope this helps at least one person save time and money on the outrageous costs of computer repair.

  • BSOD during the game, BCCode: a

    Hi guys,.

    So a few weeks ago my girlfriend spilled a glass of water that flooded my PC. I immediately turned off at the wall, let it dry for a few days and then turned back on. Everything seemed to work very well, surprise!

    ... Until I tried the game. I don't play much, but I enjoy the flight and especially X-Plane simulators. I played for about 5 minutes, it was fine, then it would cause a BSOD. I tried to reinstall, and then instead of causing BSOD, the game would just crash (still not ideal!).

    I then tried to play Kerbal space program, and after awhile, he made the BSOD too. I thought it was my graphics card which was perhaps damaged (it would make sense, because it is where most of the water would be landed in the accident). So I swapped it out today for a brand new MSI NVidia GTX 960 games 2G (replacing my ASUS NVidia GTX 750 Ti).

    I now try to X-Plane to replay, and I'm getting BSOD again.

    As I said, water damage do not seem to affect any other aspect of the performance of the PC. Everything else seems to work perfectly, as before. All hard drives are always fully accessible, I have noticed no decrease in performance of the processor, all interfaces on the motherboard (USB, Ethernet, etc.) are still functional.

    Signature of the problem:
    Problem event name: BlueScreen

  • HP Pavilion g7: gel g7 HP Pavilion at the game and video, loading screens

    So, he started like 3 months ago when I got my laptop back from repairs. I wanted to play a game (Splinter Cell: Conviction) via Steam. I turned on the game and saw the intro, but with no sound. Then, it turned out to be black. I waited 2 minutes before it loads. He loaded, fortunately. But then, when I started to play the game, it happens again. A mission has been loading and I could see the game loading icon, but for 3 minutes. When the game started, it was OK. But then, in a cutscene, it happened again. I saw the picture of the main protagonist, but no video or sound. This has happened in each cutscene and loading screen. Even when I'm dead in the game, it happened. Almost all of my games on Steam to do this (Splinter Cell: Conviction, Batman: AA, Injustice). On the other hand, there are few games that don't do this (the origins of Batman Arkham, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, Batman: Arkham City).

    Two months earlier, the problem to grow. Even videos on Youtube and all the other video portals are the same thing. I see the screen on a video and the videos on the right, but the video does not play. I have to wait 2 minutes until it loads. Every single video. He then starts, plays and plays. But, when I stop in the middle (anywhere) and then want to watch further, the loading is here again. It takes again like 2-3 minutes.

    But the worst is the multiplayer games. I have it be based on Payday: The Heist. Let's say I made a lobby for other people to participate. Then I press "start the game". The loading screen strikes again. All the players in my lobby connection let go me. When I join a game of others, I play like a minute, and then it happens again. It stucks (I can hear the soundtrack) and then told me that I lost the connection to the host. Some games do not have this (Minecraft, Portal 2), but some do (Payday: The Heist, Batman: Arkham origins). There is no connection problems, my brother has a PC and its internet connection in these games is perfect.

    When I want to open a file, it's OK. Opening files is not a problem.

    When I tried to think about it, I thought that the problem is in the sound. Thus, in Splinter Cell: Conviction, I tried something. Every time there is a loading screen, I turned the sound on my laptop. The screen was completely normal, loading took only 5 seconds. I was very happy, but when I tried a second time, it did not work. And third, fourth, fifth...

    Currently, the problem gets bigger. I can't read some of my favorite games of co - op and etc. The loading is very annoying. I'll be very happy if a solution will be found.

    Sorry for my English, I am from Czech Republic.

  • LEGO Batman 2 Windows 7 loses saving location on each new start of the game

    OS: Running Windows 7 Home Edition 64 x
    Game: Lego Batman 2 PC

    The game starts, and we're going to play at any point in the game.  Looks like he recorded afterwards, once "exit us Windows" option and closing the game.  The next time we open the game and go to "Load Game" is 0% (which means that he has not saved and it again all the way)

    It's very frustrating. This happened with the Pirates also and I had to download a patch then it would start saving again.

    I wonder if it's because the game is installed in the wrong place on Windows 7 and so there is a problem of data record to this place, so it's not.

    LEGO Batman saves in your user folder-AppData-Local-Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.

    If she's not saving it is not because you have not installed to the default location. I never install games to the default location as it can cause problems, especially with the permissions, but also many other things.

    I've not played the game much (5.5%) and it has been a while, but I have a viable record.
    Apparently, there are various issues with automatic backup system. I just had a look and a short game. It seems that if you load your backup and "free play" a box, you can choose to save and exit, but when you start a new area you reach a checkpoint or the end of the level and rely on "auto-save". Apparently, you always restart bat cave during the loading of a backup.
    If you start a new game and play at a checkpoint or the end of the level for an "auto-save" I guess that the game will save to a different location.
    He is not a player very friendly system - IMO, but seems to be the method of Warner Bros.
