steam

at the start of steam it causes my computer to turn it off. I am running studio dell with windows vista 64-bit

Hi johnecy,
I suggest you start in safe mode and uninstall Steam.

Restart the computer and when your desktop, visit your video card manufacturers website to download updated drivers and then reinstalling the device.

I hope this helps.

  • Unable to connect to the website of 'http', steam and App Store

    I use a Macbook Pro 13 inch, mid-2012 with OSX Yosemite 10.10.5. I had a problem with my network which I cannot connect to the 'http' site in Google Chrome or Safari. It shows ' site is not reachable, refused to sign, ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED '. In addition, I can not connect to Steam and it shows 'code error - 102, unable to connect to the server. "Server may be offline or you cannot be connected to the internet". I can access the App Store, but most of the app doesn't load the image, and it seems weird that I cannot install or update applications from the App Store. It is said "we could complete the purchase. Cannot connect to the server'. Finally, I can connect to the Web site "https" as google.com, facebook.com, youtube.com, and apple.com. I don't know what I was doing before that happens because I'm not all of the firewall settings or IP network since I bought it. I don't even no matter what antivirus installed on my macbook. I do not think that the problem of my wifi because it works fine on my other devices. I try to fix but still have no luck.

    Here what I was trying to fix my problem:

    1. I try to restart the computer, then reconnect to my wifi - nothing fixed

    2. I have try to change the DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 - still not fixed, worse still, unable to connect all Web sites

    3. I try to delete the Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration folder and restart the computer - nothing has changed

    4. I try to start safe mode and it works very well and when I reboot to normal, it still happens

    5. I try to remove and re-add the Chrome in the firewall settings to allow incoming connections - nothing fixed

    6. I try to delete all the data navigation and cookies in Chrome and Safari - still not fixed

    7. I try to plug in the ethernet cable, as a first step, it works very well. Then, when I disconnected and reconnected again for the second time, and then he had the same problems.

    What I saw here, I check that iTunes had recently many updates with the same version of iTunes 12.4.1 since June 4, 2016 (1 time), June 5, 2016 (1 time), June 6, 2016 (2 times), June 7, 2016 (7 times), June 8, 2016 (2 times), June 10, 2016 (9 times), June 11, 2016 (1 time) and June 12, 2016 (1 hour). I don't know if this is normal or not because he had to download and installed about 24 times with the same versions! It is possible that iTunes is the cause of this problem? Any help and suggestions that can solve my problem? Thanks in advance!

  • Mac controller compatible Steam?

    I have an iMac 5K. Been searching Amazon and a few machine games controller sites, but I see very very very little Mac compatible controllers.

  • Qosmio X 870 - 13v - graphic problem steam L4D game - black shadow on the light

    Hello

    I play this game using 2 PC Toshiba laptop.

    A Satellite L670-1KZ: 2.67 Ghz - Radeon Mobility HD5650 - RAM 6 GB i5.
    A Qosmio X 870 - 13v: i7-3630QM 2.4 Ghz - GeForce GTX 670 M & Intel HD Graphics 4000 - 32 GB of RAM.

    On the 1st, I have no graphic problem.
    On the Qosmio, I have a BIG problem with little light that have large black stain on it.

    You can see the 'bug' on YT here below:

    https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=c4E2DFScyfU&feature=youtu.be

    The configuration of the game is the same on both machines with the exception of the resolution.
    My drivers are up to date (GeForce & Intel).
    I uninstalled the game twice only = no results.
    Settings, to control panel Nvidia, I changed several times (Note option shadows cache) no = no results.
    I played with game config below only = no results.

    I posted on the forum of steam only = no response.
    I posted on the forum of Nvidia only = no response.

    So, can you help me solve this problem?

    With our thanks,
    Guillaume.

    You have any other graphic matter using this Qosmio X 870 - 13v?
    I mean other problems related to the image to appear in other games and other applications running?

    Otherwise I n t think that there is something wrong with the laptop.
    In this case, it looks like very specific issues between this game and probably the graphics driver.

    It turns out that you won't encounter problems under this game the Satellite L670 with ATI driver.
    The Qosmio is supported by the nVidia GPU

    I think there must be a link any between the nVidia GPU and this game.
    In my opinion you should look for the solution in the steam forums or nvidia even if you have not received answer yet.

  • Error "the application"Steam.app"is not open more."

    I use Steam to play games, I recently installed Trove which began to hang Steam (and not run) rarely when I clicked on the play button.

    Sometimes, when Steam closes (or hangs in my case), when I try to open it again, it gives me an error "the application"Steam.app"is not open more.". It can be fixed by restarting, but it's boring and useless. How can I fix it?

    Restart the computer in safe mode. Some caches maintained by the system will be rebuilt.

    Safe mode is much slower to start up as normal. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

    If you use no FileVault 2 in OS X 10.7 ("Lion") or later version, you can restart as usual (not in safe mode) when the login screen appears. There is no need to log on in safe mode.

    If you use FileVault 2 in OS X 10.11 ("El Capitan") or later version, or if you don't know if use you it, you as usual then connect in safe mode, and then restart (not in safe mode.)

    If you use FileVault 2 in OS X 10.9 ("Swat") or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you cannot start in safe mode. In this case, request further instructions.

  • I can not connect to steam and world of tanks, but I can connect to any other site and server.

    So, how to fix my router so that it will enable my pc to connect to the steam and the world of tanks? I am an A + certified technician in computer science and hold certifications from the material with several companies, but everything I tried failed. I am therefore asking for help.

    I agree, especially since you said that this does not work when connected directly to the modem. It is proof that the router is not involved.

  • Dead Rising 2 via Steam Windows Live error - must check the release date of your game

    The facility is nice and smooth, and then he launched Games for Windows - Live (which I am currently connected to)

    "Games for Windows - LIVE should check the release date of your game." Please make sure that your computer is connected to the internet.

    No personal information will be sent to Microsoft. A LIVE ID is not necessary. »

    There are no options. I can't get my CD key, I can't try to reconnect to the internet in this window, or something like that. Closing the window or by reducing it is my only options. It is a part of the installation process of the game, so since this is the last step I'm stuck here and I'm not sure how to fix. Thanks for any help.

    I am connected to the internet. I have disabled the firewall of windows 7, my firewall staff and is gone from my router to my cable modem to make sure that the firewall of the router is not a problem. I rebooted my cable modem, computer. Had no other programs running and tried while being not connected to Windows Live and signed in just to make sure that the Games for Windows Live Server has increased.

    It is now installed on the C: drive. Apparently it was a question mentioned on the Steam Forums as a problem with this game.

    I don't know if it is a parable of Descartes where I think I'm connected to the internet and to talk to people on the internet, when in reality I'm thrilled by the great deceiver.

    After so many months I doubt you care no more, but just in case anyone wants it, I found the solution (for me).  My DPI (font size scale) was higher than normal.  Windows LIVE dialogue here does not take this into account, so do not appear buttons that are supposed to appear.  Just press ENTER to continue on this screen, or set scaling back to normal fonts, and you'll be able to read the whole dialog box and see the buttons.

    Hope this helps someone.
