Is this the board ?

https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M4A785TDM_EVO/HelpDesk_Download/

Because the latest OS officially supported in the drop menu there for drivers is Windows 8.1. No drivers for Windows 10.

EDIT...Also, I see you are overclocking. One usual step when troubleshooting issues like this is to not overclock and set the configuration back to a default state. However, not having any drivers officially supporting that OS is the very first concern.

(I have this same board in another rig, not the EVO though. Running Windows 7, and I even have the same CPU in the board.)

[TA]

Yeap Thats right

[zekeworld]

The part that boggles me is it works on Windows 7 on my other partition still with the cpu overclocked with no issues what so ever.

Any thoughts?

The giving one that is the correct board that i have.

When i get a chance ill post the other error code that shows up after i try creating a game to see if anyone else might beable to provide answers.

Is anyone else running windows 10 with 7 days running fine?

Ummm..did you not see my post about not having drivers for that board ? It has nothing to do with 7DTD and Windows 10. There are no drivers on ASUS for that board and Windows 10.

[zekeworld]

Oh crap miss read. My bad. The drivers i did install using the provided cd. But like you said the board at the time was rated for windows 7.

That CD does not have Windows 10 drivers on it. And those are usually outdated anyway.

If you cannot get them from each device's manufacturer, then you have to understand that Windows 10 is not supported on that board.

You cannot just install and run any OS from any computer. There must be drivers that support it.

[zekeworld]

Looks lile ill be visiting asus's website later. Atleast this gives me somewhere to start aside from constantly browsing for info about the error codes.

For what ? There are no drivers on ASUS for that board and Windows 10. Sorry if this seems rude, but you don't seem to be fully reading my posts or checking link(s) to information.

[zekeworld]

Im miss reading the posts so thats my bad. But thats a head scratch because why would ark survival work perfectly fine with my build when im running the windows 10 side?

Or i guess thats an entirely different thing altogether.

But then the game is cpu ram and gpu demanding game.

Some install or upgrade to Windows 10 where it is not supported on their systems and it runs fine..........for a while. Then one day, an issue like this comes up.

Then again, some may have BSOD errors. Then still, some may just have some things work and not others. Installing an OS on an unsupported system without drivers can present issues in many different ways.

I would suggest if you want to try further to get W10 running properly on that system, you can post in the hardware and OS forum to do so. It is not a problem with Steam. It is an operating system/driver problem.

EDIT..Hardware and OS

http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/11/

EDIT 2. 7DTD, from the Steam store page, runs fine on Windows 10..

RECOMMENDED:
OS: Windows 7 or higher

[zekeworld]

Thanks for the assit. Its just annoying having to switch back and forth between win 7 and 10 and just was unclear of the exact cause. Ill post the error windows supplies later

May I ask why you want to have dual boot system like this ? Except for DX12 , I don't see a reason why you cannot just run on Windows 7 all the time.

In fact, many still prefer Windows 7 and think it was and is the best OS Microsoft has ever had, with the exception of newer DirecX 12 of course.

[zekeworld]

As we both know support for win 7 is roughly around 2020. I do like my Windows 7 but i got 10 only cause of te free upgrade. Plus whats now makin me mad is windows 10 takes priority on the boot sequence

I see. Yes, you are right. W7 is supposed to go out in 2020. This is why I personally would have them on seperate hard drives, instead of partitions. Then, you could select which OS you want on boot easily enough.

But post in the hardware and OS forum about that also, along with trying to get W10 running properly on that system, if you wish. You 'may' be able to get the drivers from the manufacturer's themselves, instead of ASUS. Emphasis on "may".
