it could very well be related to the windows 6 family of systems, which includes vista, 7, 8 and 8.1. my windows 7 pcs never had SSDs.

It was my own build PC, so it had SSD.

i purchased a pc with a 2 terrabytes harddrive. it had some issues however so, i traded it in for one that was similar but that did not have those errors. its original harddrive still works, though it got some bad sectors after i tipped over the pc when vacuuming.

the bigger the PC the harder it is to tip over...

and the easier it is to smack your knee on it >.<

rather, it is the exact opposite. the bigger it is, the easier it is to tip over. i learned my lesson however and never have the hose around my pc.

actually physically it's harder, it's just once it reaches the critical point it's both harder to stop and falls harder...

never knocked over my full tower in over a decade... but I'm smashed my knee on it at least a dozen times lmao.

my biggest desktop is not possible to tip over, because it is next to a shelf. i know that it blocks the shelf but, none of the vents is on the side. there is a vent at the top and fans at the front and at the back. all i am blocking is the window, so that i can not see in.

oh brother,
how dumb do you think we are? VALVE IS NOT DELETING YOUR STEAM EXE. THAT IS YOUR DOING.

oh ok... so you're saying that I deleted steam.exe and just forgot about it?

cmon m8.

did i say explicitly that you did it?

Let me guess, he's still slandering Valve? Maybe an error occurred during an update?

he even admitted that he spoke to someone and determined it wasn't the case.

A very good survivor bullet heaven Demo just released yesterday and it work on Win7 without issue. Higly recommended. I think this game have the best graphics in this genre so far and I tried several hundred of them.

i have a windows 7 pc that i use at all times. i use it for gaming if i want to play on my tv. i am not using any hacks to run it. it keeps running as it have done.

u need an outdated client to make it run since valve patched out win7 support from the client

unofficial client = cheating

wrong, steam uses cef 109, which is fully compatible with win 7, ie... both latest beta and public clients run on win 7 and will continue to do so until they move from cef 109, then workarounds or old clients will be needed.

fyi support isn't something you "patch out", it's something you simply stop doing and as well only means it's not supported, not that it won't run/work after said support ends.

also, I'm wondering where the "cheating" nonsense came up, using an old client isn't "cheating" lol.

that said, I don't think misinformation and bait comments are working for you or others here in this thread, as we all know better.
