I honestly had nightmares with my last gaming PC because it would crash my whole PC if I tried to play Borderlands 2, Portal 2 and Serious Sam. It just crashed completely on start up and couldn't find the problem. I think it had something to do with my BIOS.

i dont even know what a BIOS is XD, last time i played games on PC i was playing Age of Empires, Rise of Nations, Guild Wars and Empire Earth and i never had to deal with anything else than the installation, seems like things have gotten a little bit more complicated.

Well, you actually don't need to do anything with the BIOS and the BIOS has been around since the beginning of PC! For a normal user, they rarely need to access the Bios unless they want to install a new OS or overclock their PC (as well as some other tasks that a normal user wouldn't do). If you aren't a power user, PC gaming has gotten easier than ever imo and its quite easy to find helpful stuff in the community forums if something doesn't work. When it comes to steam, all you have to do in 99% of cases is just right click and install and done! You can start playing the game asap (after the download finishes obviously)

And of course, if your PC gets a virus, quit clicking on those "Hawt girl wants to fuck you" ads that popup and you generally need to get an anti-virus but the thing with that is... Everyone has a PC and you cant get a virus from playing games so if you are getting a virus on ur Gaming PC, you probably gotten a virus on ur non gaming PC anyway. It is very hard to get a virus unless your doing something like torrenting or going to porn websites (and some other websites) and clicking on links that you shouldn't be clicking on!
