  2. Downloading games

    Hi,



    Install game in Compatibility mode

    I would suggest you to install the game I compatibility mode and check: Follow these steps:




    • Download the driver from the manufacturer’s website.

    • Right-click on the driver setup file and click on
      ‘properties’.

    • Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box
      ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 10 from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation. Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the issue persists


    Hope it helps. Do contact us for further queries. We will be happy to assist.



    Thank you.

    Not sure about the games you listed but no probs with Dirt Rally and benching heavensward-bench here for me. I'm going to test 3DMark too in a few minutes.
