  I'm using Windows 10/Edge/direct connection to WGT.  I had no problems after they down-loaded the update to me on Thursday (in the middle of the clash).  I did have to restore the screen size just like I was warned, but all worked fine.

  Went on Steam yesterday evening and loadingissues there too. Having to "Retry" to load between holes and shots, not good. But the "gravely" graphics from the Launcher was a ok on Steam, the dots not "under" the grid, ex graphics.

  Just finished a round on Steam without any problems, haven`t been on the launcher as of today, will try it later.

  After the Steam update I couldn't get the game to load. I deleted the game and downloaded it again and now getting a "Disc Write Error". I deleted Steam and the game again. Downloaded Steam and the game again and get the same error.

  Any ideas on how to fix this.

  Thanks

  I missed this part :-(

   "Steam expected to release early next week."

  probably why steam WAS still working correctly, no longer... :-(

  after spending a few hours AGAIN on this I have got the window sizing where I like it w/o borders. Have not been able to solve the dots on the grid lines tho, they blink on and off at regular intervals. If one could figure out the patern of the blinking I am sure it could be used to count dot speeds. Problem is they are not clear enough for my bad eyes.

  for the resizer, I figured out if after you launch golf under options switch from windowed to full screen. When it asks to keep changes or revert if you select revert then resize the window w/o the goofey borders. I did have to adjust the resizer as the windows were NOT the same as pre update.

  Greetings all.

  After the Steam update I have been unable to get the game to play. I have deleted the game and reinstalled it and I am getting this "Disc write error". I have deleted Steam and also reinstalled that and keep getting the same error. Will not open the game.

  When I pull my game up in the library I have the green play button. However, when I click on it I get this error.

  Any ideas on how to fix?

  Worked fine until the update.

  Thanks,

  Dave

  Hi Eddie,

   

  I’ve just run the game on my system I’m using 5.3gb Ram when playing the game. I’m running 128gb ram though so have tonnes of headroom, however, what that tells me is that 5.3gb ram is its optimum ram usage.
