Screw PC gaming

[McNasty 260]

Seriously PC gaming can go fuck itself sometimes.

 

Bought GTA5, can't play more than 20 minutes without it crashing.  Steam won't give a refund.  Looking through all the forum posts about what the issue might be, I realized you need a fucking doctorate in computer science to be able to troubleshoot.  "oh I figured it out, just go into XYZ file and reprogram the entire fucking game by adding in these simple 80 lines of code and problem solved!"

 

I bought Arkham City about 2 years ago and beat it.  No problems playing.  Just redownloaded the game again so my son could fly around the city, and the game crashed as soon as the title screen pops up.  Changed just about every single setting possible and nothing works.  I already played this game, on this computer, with the same hardware, and all of a sudden it just doesn't want to work at all. 

 

Fuck you computer.

GTA 5 is awesome on PC.

 

But yeah, these things are sent to test us.

 

Send us your problem and PC specs, maybe we* can help.

Got windows 7 by anychance?

 

My computer started crashing a lot. I couldn't find anything wrong with it and I'm pretty technically savy. The operating system was the issue and some of the updates fucked things up

 

When I updated to win10, the problems went away. 

 

I think it's MS underhanded way to get people to upgrade to win10 so that their numbers go up.

PCMR, sorry I had to. For sure post and tell us what's happening.

Honestly I don't know whats happening.  I can play GTA 5 for about 10-20 minutes, and then the game locks up.  Says it's "checking for a problem", and then goes to not responding.  I've played a ton of the game, but there are certain missions that take longer than 15-20 minutes and I can't make it through them.  The mission I'm on right now I've tried 10 times and can't finish it without crashing.  With Arkham City the game crashes as soon as the title screen pops up.  I've updated the driver for my graphics card, and turned all the settings to as low as possible with no luck.  

 

I'm going to try and upgrade to win10.  win7 might be the issue.  who knows.
