Hello Freeze61,

I was wondering if there was something wrong with my computer or if it is just a connection problem.
The info above suggests that the games to which you refer are Steam games, if yes, try using the Ethernet port instead of the wireless card as it has a lot of reported issues from users running Windows 10, some examples at the one egg reviews here

Can you do the following for us first so that we have something to check over while we wait on any testing results when using the Ethernet port;

Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here, this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s.


To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:

In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.

In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.

Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.
