Yep. Sounds right. I am hoping I won't have to wipe and reinstall as often now that I upgraded my hardware in March, but before that I was down to about every six months. You could have hardware problems that are contributing to your system problems.


Wait... You're saying that wiping and reinstalling your computer every six months was considered normal for you? :o



back in 98se days i would be lucky if i wasnt wiping my hard drive 3 months. gamers we're brutal on hard and software. lol

Machines age; operating systems change. Eventually, they grow apart. Until one day, you ditch the machine for a younger model, and all that's left is to fight over who gets the peripherals. ;)

I run two machines. I've posted about my issues on getting STO to run on my older model. It's a 2014 HP Envy and still runs smooth but I always had issues with STO and when they did away with the XP support, it would not run at all. I got another machine just for gaming. However, you have to show the older model TLC also or it gets jealous. :lol:

I have another computer too that is probably 6-7 years only but it is still supported thinking it is windows 7. . Since I don't need a computer for work. Sto is literally the only thing I use it for now Land its hooked up to main tv. I guess it also does my Netflix and other internet TV stuff. It is a tower so lots of room to upgrade still.

You can run STO on Win7? Nice!! I know STO launched in 2010 but I can't remember what operating system was the hot thing then...maybe XP?

I just bought a new computer 2 years ago lol too . Giant touch screen. I got that to make Sto feel more like Star Trek . But sto dies not have a great touch screen input. Touch screen must be tapped twice to get buttons to work. Every think else is 1 touch though so it still fun

I wonder if any one knows how to alter the settings right in game to make the game more touch screen friendly?
