I made a post on the steam forums as you suggested, but they have no clue.

The only other issue I'm having is it won't detect external USB hard drives after restart 50% of the time. I'm starting to wonder if it's firmware related.
Running Ubuntu.
Also, if I switch to Windows 7 will the only real problem be the HDMI audio and having to use the audio jack instead?
I think I can live with that.
yeah sorry I can't be more help, not a steam user.
When you say it doesn't detect the hard drive after restart, do you mean it's not detected at boot (ie, doesn't appear in the boot menu) or not detected by the OS?
You can run Win8.1 but not Win7, and yes HDMI audio is the only glaring issue. But I haven't used it enough to know if any other smaller ones.

For a dual-boot setup (which I have)
fsck /dev/sda6 (enter)
fsck /dev/sda7 (enter)
After each one is run you type "reboot" and hit enter. The file system should boot normally.
I tried this several times and sda6 came back clean. sda7 showed having error and I followed the prompts Y/N to try to repair it. I got another message something to the effect of it still having errors and was 0.1% in error or something like that. This time I rebooted through typing that prompt and it booted right into OpenElec and Kodi as usual.
I was able to access my local content again and YouTube appeared to be working. I tried some other addons and it seemed as if the HD hosts were not working and while some files played, I continued to get lockups just trying to access the host.
Any suggestions as to what I should try next?
you reboot after running the fsck on both partitions, not after each one. Too many variables when streaming from internet sources to say if it's at all related, and I'm guessing whatever add-ons you are using are not for legal content, so really can't help there. I'd probably reload OE (redo 2nd part of dual boot setup) and start fresh
Any reason why Windows 7 won't work?
