Currently, I am having a problem running any and all of my steam games.
I have a system that a week ago could run Dragon Age at medium settings, this week it's stuttering a little playing Jade Empire.
My copy of Fallout 3 that is not tied to steam is working fine, even with steam open.
But pretty much all of my games on steam are stuttering very often. (borderlands, dead space, UT3 and jade empire are the only ones i've tried so far but all show freezing at regular intervals seemingly determined by game reqs.)
I'm getting a message on loading up my pc that claims "oxaderir.dll cannot be found" but on googling this I find no results.
I also cannot open IE, a problem I got around by downloading Chrome through the Steam web-browser.
I had some annoying antivirus bug that my dad sorted which he fixed but screwed up some registry files. I since got another trojan, which I may or may not still have.
Is there a possible way to fix this manually, or should I just head straight for the nearby PC repair shop (total 150 meters from my house)
Money isn't such an issue, but if there's any way to avoid carrying my pc there i'd gladly go for it.
