Game problems after Win update (Fallout4 & SC Blackl.)
Hi guys.
Sorry if I'm reposting something. I googled my problems and nothings come up too reliable.
I was playing Fallout 4 a lot for a few weeks before I got the new Windows 10 update. When I started playing again after the update, the game was lagging and became unplayable. I tried a solution where you reduce the amount of paging file used (if I remember correctly) and it wasn't working.
I ditched Fallout 4 for the time being (who cares anyways) and decided to try some of the other 100 games I've yet to finish and launched Splinter Cell Blacklist. Everything was running pretty smooth there until a certain point where the game crashed every time. This is hardly due to the update since the game was fine until that one part. But I googled this problem and the only thing I found was a forum post saying it was a problem with a corridor with red light (which was kinda the deal). The only solution there was to switch from DirectX 11 to 9 or something which I did and sadly that didn't work.
I have kinda just recently moved completely to PC from consoles and started using Steam almost exclusively and I don't regret that but this I find really frustrating how every update, patch etc can become fatal and prevent you from playing given games. This is a problem with PC gaming I find rarely used when people are arguing about what's best...strange.
Well, hopefully you guys can give me pointers. I hate having unfinished games that are only unfinished because of technical issues.
Thanks
