    Hi, anyone here have TF2? Because on the video settings I can only set shadows to meduim at max, is this normal?

    That is ABnormal. You should be able to run the game maxxed out. I'd bet it is running on integrated graphics.

    Don't steam games need you to whitelist more than just the steam.exe to run on GT555?

    idk but it's running on the Nvidia Card, I whitelisted hl2.exe and I don't understand why I just have two options on shadows low and meduim, all other settings are on high. I reinstalled the games three times and I still have the issues, no one here have TF2 installed on his m14x?
