Hey guys and gals, got a question or 2 about ...well about what the title says.
So my PC was getting the blue screen of death so we took it in to get it looked at. They phoned up and said our hard drive is on it's last legs and needs to be replaced.
They mentioned something about data transfer, which, as far as I know, is transferring as much stuff from my old HD to the new one.
They asked what was important to transfer and I said my games (duh) as well as others that aren't important here.
They said they may or may not be able to transfer my games and it's saves depending on where it's stored.
Here's my questions:
Steam games can be redownloaded, but does Steam hold my game saves?
Some games like Borderlands and Skyrim I bought on discs but they both required Steam to play, any problems I might encounter there?
Finally, my daughter has sunk some 200 plus hours into the Sims 3. They have all come off of discs so if the disc based games can't be transferred, can I simply stick in the discs and use them again? Or are the product key codes that come with these games a one-and-done kinda thing? And does Origin save the game save data?
Thanks guys, this is all kinda new to me and I'm kinda $h!tt!ng bricks here...
