    My games will not work


    Just got my Acer and after I had made sure that everything was updated and working properly I downloaded of my favorite games. but out of all of them only 1 works. One instantly crashes and goes to a black screen, one wont load at all, and the third will give the title load screen and freeze right there. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, ran diagnostics on each and nothing comes on. I don't know what is wrong, please help!!

    :)

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

      “Properties”.
