    USB 3.0 and External HDD Issue

    Try checking in Device Manager if the devices show up with any errors against them. Not sure how it works but maybe Windows installed general 2.0 drivers which it tries to use when you plug the drives in? Perhaps you could try uninstalling them and letting Windows install generic drivers when...

    German Court Rules in Favour of Valve, No Game Reselling on Steam

    You might remember back some time ago that the German consumer watchdog group (VZBV) issued Valve a warning over changes to the Steam EULA back in 2012. It's the second time the issue has gone to the regional court of Berlin, and again the lawsuit has been dismissed. The VZBV leaned on the...

    Dota 2 "New Bloom Festival" Update - Day 3

    I'm wondering if the replay takeover thing means Valve can essentially capture a moment and save it at any time, like a restore point. In pro tournaments I've seen games crash (both Dota and LoL) and the team have got to "go re" as they say. Could this feature also be used to restore a game...

    Dota 2 "New Bloom Festival" Update Announced - Day 1

    Quite excited to see the new map above everything really, they have always been very well polished in other events. Dota 2 has been doing well with Nexon's help in East Asia but I'd be interested to see how the player numbers change with an event focused on the huge Chinese player base...

    Audio Driver issues on an Asus Zenbook (Windows 7) after screen/monitor replacement?

    Also, you said you 'rebooted' the laptop. Some people use rebooted as a synonym for 'reformated'. Do you mean you reformed and started from scratch? If so, did you manually install windows or use the recovery partition? The latter comes with the built in drivers etc and would work right away. If...

    Audio Driver issues on an Asus Zenbook (Windows 7) after screen/monitor replacement?

    Possibly...although the headphone jack (and microphone jack) are usually mounted on the sound board. So if the power cable had been left out the soundboard, Windows wouldn't be able to detect it and play via the internal speakers or headphones. I bought that exact laptop for my girlfriend...

    How close is the Black Mesa Research Facility to a modern lab?

    A modern lab is a very vague term. Scientific labs are suited to their scientific discipline. Walk into a DNA PCR lab and compare it to an organic chemist lab, they couldn't be more polar opposite. Admittedly my scientific background has never been near a physics centric lab, but again, it's a...

    You may recall the announcement of Valve's new Steam Developer days conference which is taking place on January 15th & 16th in Seattle. It will be an opportunity for developers & publishers working with Steam / Steam Machines to present their input, experience and possible future endeavors...

    Steam Announcement #2: Steam Machines

    There is code in Steam relating to Spotify so they are certain to be one of the partners as part of SteamOS. But there will also probably be a bunch of others...Netflix, Hulu etc

    Steam Announcement #1: SteamOS

    The logistics on how this will work via a SteamOS box as a relay from your PC / Mac etc seems a bit clunky and confusing for the average user. Although I'm sure #2 and #3 will round things off nicely with some hardware additions. It could be as simple as #2 Controller #3 Box!

    Site Announcement: Munro Leaves ValveTime

    I think he would have done, had he been aware he's been ousted from the site. Imagine his surprise when he comes back and finds I've changed the locks.

    Site Announcement: Munro Leaves ValveTime

    Today we're sad to announce that our site director and founder, Munro, has decided to step down from his post at ValveTime and leave the staff ranks. Munro founded Halflife2.net back in May 2003, uniting a community of patient Half-life fans. The site grew rapidly and became the number one...

    New steam ID converter

    Nice work, always like to see people learning a new skill and release something from their learning experience rather than just reading the textbook. I'll be using this instead of the other site above, thanks for your work. Keep us updated on what else you do!
