Consider Dark Souls and The Witcher games. Neither are as high fantasy as the games mentioned in the OP, but still I found them immensely satisfying.

Nose two times, wrist four times, hand/knuckles three times and ribs probably five times. I used to skateboard and I get mouthy when I drink.

EDIT: Breaking bones pretty much suck, yeah.

I'm having the same problem, it seems. I can choose quality, delivery method, embiggen and sticky. But not sound levels, skip forwards or back or pause the playback.

Windows 8, Chrome browser Version 24.0.1312.57 m

If I enjoy something and later discover that the creator is a shitty human being, I usually won't stop liking their content. I will, however, stop giving them money and support them in the future. There's so much awesome media out there, made by cool people, so I prefer to support people I get a good vibe from.

@dark_sylinc: Thanks for the input. A clean Windows install did the trick.

I got the cheap upgrade to Windows 8 pro, and while it fixed my problem my first impression of the OS is not the best. Only the aesthetics, mind. It's fast as fuck. Though that's a subject for another thread.

Thanks to everyone who's helped me with suggestions in this thread. Sadly, nothing have solved my problem, so I'll just reinstall windows and see if that helps. But first, I'm gonna have to find all my savegames. Yay!

Your opinions offend me, and your hate for INSERT POPULAR GAME HERE proves to me that you are either a child or a INSERT POPULAR CONSOLE owner. Either way, I shall carry this grudge for years and make sure to bring it up in any thread you participate in.

@Toxeia: I've got an Nvidia card, but for some reason I'm unable to update the drivers. After reboot I get a message telling me the install failed. Assuming it's related to my shut down problem. Gonna try to unplug some stuff before next power down.

@IAmNotBatman: Good idea. I'm gonna do that tonight.

@DrIntrovert: Getting to this tonight as well. Since the problem started when I changed hard drives, this seems to belong high up on my to do list.

Again; thanks a bunch for taking the time to helping me brainstorm, duders. Even though I haven't gotten to the root of the problem yet, I'm learning some pretty useful things in the process, and that's always cool.

@FritzDude: I did that, and no change in behavior. Good suggestion though. Thanks.

@Toxeia: Cheers for saving me the time to google the needed the commands. Not sure if I understand the rest of your comment though. Are you showing how to put my machine to sleep by command line? And then setting a shut down if it's been asleep for X amount of time?

EDIT: typos and clarity
