10 year old laptop > brand new custom prebuilt PC? HELP!

I recently upgraded from a 10 year old i5 7700 8Gb RAM 1050GT Laptop to a custom prebuilt, 7800X3D 32GB DDR5 RX 7800XT. On my old laptop, I was able to get into the game slow but I was in - somehow after my friend helped me install all of the drivers and latest windows update - I could not load up at all. We even tried a clean install of windows. Steam and Last Epoch (a few times), even verified(?) the game files before launching. I am not much of a tech person and my friend has done all he can, over teamviewer. But I don’t know what else to do. Any help and advice would be great, I want to try those monoliths. Thank you in advance.

People are having troubles with low-mid and high end rigs, the game currently has issues with stability and more. When you say you could not load up at all you might need to describe it a bit more.

You have any problems with other games on that pc? Can click the play button in steam? Using desktop shortcut? What happens? Nothing? Black screen? Screen lock/crash? Error notice? Have to restart pc or use task manager to close?

This will help others to help you or can do forum search for key words your experiencing. Many topics.

okay cool - so on that forum just reply to him.

  1. Clean Install of windows.
  2. Updated all the drivers (most were NOT installed)
  3. clean install of steam (do not mention what you did :rofl: )
  4. clean install of the game.
  5. mention that it can run games from Xbox Game Pass for PC
  6. no games will load from steam, you had 2 friends trying to help look at the PC as a whole and couldn’t see anything wrong.

Do you have any antivirus/malware/spyware applications installed? What about a firewall or other blocker. Are you going through a router?
