Stupidly, when I got a new comuter 7 months ago, I installed Skyrim, but didn't click on the option to install on HD. So, installed on Steam.

Now, occasionally, all sound disappears. Only in this game and only since the latest 1.9 (whatever) "patch."

I am thinking of re-installing on HD. I have the Dawnguard and Dragonborn DLCs. Questions:

a) After I install on HD, where are my Saves? Can't find where they are now.

Will Steam re-send me the DLCs? Have asked these 2 weeks ago to Steam and no reply. Any help appreciated.

Intel i5-3550 CPU @ 3.30 Ghz

4 GB mem

64-bit, WIN 7

On Windows 7 the saves are usually in the c:\users\[user name]\My Documents\My Games\Skyrim\saves folder

Steam will install all DLCs that are on your account.

Thanks re the DLCs, I appreciate your help.
