    Will Playing Games Damage My PC


    I just started playing the MMO Eve Online with my new ThinkPad E580. But I'm also worried about damaging my PC's internal components because of playing that game, as I have broken a PC by playing SWTOR (another MMO). Can someone help me with this problem? This is a link to my PC specs: https://www.lenovo.com/au/en/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpad-edge/ThinkPad-E580/p/22TP2TEE580?s_kwcid=AL!2923!3!288260525923!p!!g!!think%20pad%20e580&ef_id=W35WnAAAAHwWVWCy:20180823101903:s


    Thanks

  3. Can't play my pes13 game on my windows 10 professional PC desktop

    Hi,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you are unable to play game.

    I will certainly help you with this.

    Did you check the game compatibility with Windows 10?

    I would suggest you to go through the below steps:

    Steps: Try to run the program in compatibility mode:


    • Right click on the game icon through which you launch the game.

    • Click on properties.

    • Click on compatibility tab.

    • Check the box, run this program in compatibility mode and select the previous operating system.

    • Click on apply and then ok.

    I hope this helps. Please post back with the status of the issue and we will be glad to assist you further.

    PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??
