G751JT-CH71 Preinstalled Steam Games..how to make them work?

[Baldazzer]

Hi there. I just picked up a G751JT-CH71. It came with some steam games (Bioshock Infinite, Skyrim and some others) loaded on a partition on the hard drive. I can't figure out how to get them running. Is anyone familiar with these pre-loaded games and how to get them running in Steam? I can find the executables, but when I run them (as administrator or not), nothing happens and they do not show up in my Steam library. Thanks!

Hi Baldazzer, and welcome to the ROG Forum.

If you have pre-installed games that run on Steam (or any other games download manager), then you should have a card/s with product activation code for each game.

In Steam you can activate the game under the menu at top
1. Click on Games.
2. Click on "Activate a product on Steam"
3. Then follow the prompts from there.
Note: You will at some point need to change the download directory to the partition where the games are installed.
(So Steam will know where to search for these pre-installed games, and install new games to that partitioon)

Hope this helps you my friend?
