Red box in corner?
Uh i have a weird bug. Whenever I start up a game theres a red box in the bottom right corner. It goes over the steam overlay. Can anyone help?

It's more than likely an overlay from either a downloaded app, or your video / audio programs.

Hard to say without knowing anything more than "red box".

Not a game, an application. More than likely it's one of those 'sound visualizers' that help for audio impairment or other needs, or just some kind of game-overlay supplement.

It's only starting with a game from steam because more than likely you clicked the app to run for it. Check your video card or sound card settings or suite, if you have one. There are several of these things around. I don't use any of them, so I don't know which it might be. One of them's blue, another red, but they're harmless overlays that are not from steam nor the game you're seeing it on. It's an external application.
