Every game I have played since I upgraded to windows 10 will completely crash my computer. ...

Jenk08 · Aug 25, 2015

I have been trying to figure this out now for almost a month now and every other day spending multiple hours trying new things to see if it will fix it. So far nothing has worked. I tried resetting my computer so I can do a clean installation. Now I'm stuck
with windows 10 and I can not play any games besides browser games. Browser games can only get you so far! I have checked every single driver on my computer multiple times. I have reinstalled them multiple times. I have tried to install different drivers but
I can't because of compatibility issues and as of now there is only one driver for GPU,CPU,etc. because windows 10 is so new. Websites like Reddit will not load an image or video anymore. I have tried using my Main GPU and tried using the one on my Motherboard.
I did a clean reset on my computer. I have reinstalled all my drivers multiple times and tried different ones. I have tried compatibility mode. I have tried run as admin. I have tried restarting my computer in safe mode. I have gone into the properties of
some steam games hit Verify Integrity Of Game Cache. I have also tired to repair games. I can not connect to my friends TeamSpeak anymore. Windows 10 has really messed up my computer and I just want to play the games I love to play with friends. I am
a hardcore gamer who just wants to play games and I haven't been able to do that for almost a month now. This update has really messed with my computer for some weird reason. I really want to stay with Microsoft. Any help/suggestion would be extremely appreciated.

I have tried most games in my library. League of Legends doesn't work and nothing Blizzard works.

I built my own computer and I had an easy transition from Windows 7 to 8 to 8.1

Computer Specs:

OS: Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit

CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40 GHz

RAM: 16 GB

GPU: GeForce GTX 660

Sorry if I repeat some things I copy and paste some bits of conversation I had with Microsoft support. Also wrote this at 2 am my apologizes.

I posted this in the Microsoft community and Navneet Anand Support Engineer told me I would get better help here.

Controller Headset

Hello,

I recently upgraded my computer from windows 8.1 to windows 10. In the previous version my plugged in controller headset worked perfectly, but with the latter version it doesn't work anymore. The computer itself seems to know its plugged in, but programs
like skype or in-game like Overwatch it doesn't work. I tried to reinstall the driver but it seems like there is some trouble there? Does anyone know a solution?

Xbox 360 Wired Controller not recognized (Windows 10)

I've got a weird problem. I have had no trouble plugging in a controller to my laptop and using it to play games since I started using one in May. It worked fine on Windows 8, and still worked when I upgraded to Windows 10. But as of yesterday, my controller
does not work. I plug it in, the light flashes once, and nothing else happens. It doesn't appear in the device manager either. This is what I've tried to fix it:

Tried a different controller; neither work.

Tested different USB ports. All of my ports work with everything except the controllers.

Installed Windows updates. My computer is completely up to date.

Tried different games. The controllers don't work in any of them.

Restarted my computer multiple times.

Everything on my computer is running fine, and according to my brothers, the controllers work fine with the Xbox itself. If anyone could help me get this sorted out, I'd really appreciate it.

Not tech support, but ...

You can go back to Win 7, if you had made a backup of your HD ahead of time.

I used Macrium Rescue for mine.

Your mobo drivers may be playing a key role. Even with the right GPU drivers, if the chipset driver for your vid port isn't updated, then your still toast.

As far as playing no games. You may have to delete and install each game from scratch. I have Windows XP games and software able to work fine on Windows 10, after they been reinstalled.

BTW... IF nothing else, put in Windows 8 drivers. and see if they work. Some of my hardware doesn't have Win10 drivers, so I had to opt for the Win8 or 8.1 ones.

Also ... Make sure you have 64 bit Hardware, if your hardware isn't 64bit, the 64 bit OS wont do jack.

IF all is OK for 64bit hardware, be sure you are downloading the 64 bit drivers.

I've upgraded to Windows 10, 3 times from Windows 8.1 on my Toshiba Satellite S55-A5295. Each time I was Unable to 'SIGN-IN' to Microsoft Jigsaw. I actually used Three different copies of Windows 8.1 before upgrading. One was the original that came with
the Laptop, the second was supplied by a tech service at great cost and the third was purchased from Walmart. Couldn't sign in to Jigsaw with any of them. I'm a tech and have been working with computers since 1979, 8088, Atari, Commodore, IBM and Radio shack.
I've installed, uninstalled updated and cleaned the computer in virtually every combination possible in an attempt to get this to work. I've been playing Microsoft Jigsaw since September of 2014 or 16 months. In that time, I have had other problems too. The
main 'other' problem is that statistics does not track correctly. Approximately 6% of the time if fails to credit the user for the LAST completed puzzle. On a few occasions, I RESET my computer due to a problem I detected and STATISTICS would remove a number
of completed puzzles from the count. All toll, I've had approximately 4500 completed puzzles removed in this way. That's Four Thousand Five Hundred. Most were in the first 5 of playing the game, but it can still happen now. Having invested a significant Dollar
amount in this game, I can't upgrade to Windows 10 without losing the money. I want to upgrade to Windows 10 and thus the dilemma. IS THERE ANY HOPE out there from Microsoft or Arcadia???

My Windows 10 upgrade happened last week: about Oct 8, 2018. Caused my entire computer system to CRASH. Had only a blank screen. Dell got my computer going again. Several questions please:

1. HOW DO I STOP UPGRADES FROM WINDOWS 10. Each upgrade has done great damage to my computers. PLEASE HELP ME TO STOP THEM!

2. My system is now working "better"... AM A PREMIUM MEMBER OF THE MICROSOFT SOLITAIRE COLLECTION. In fact since I got my system back, I think I have paid about 3 times just to get the games to play. TODAY,,, I am now getting the error message 121003...
like those listed below:

I AM DEFINITELY CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET!!! I updated my password so I could sign up with the game...hoping once they recognized "me", they'd recognized my internet system.

I had no problems before Windows 10 upgrade (Oct 2018) ruined just about everything on my computer. HATE WINDOWS 10. Pam from WI.
