Since replacing my laptop recently and using Windows 10, metal objects no longer have any shine. Metal textures such as stainless steel which I often used on sinks and door handles just look like dull, dark gray. My Laptop is a Dell Inspiron Core i5 with an Intel HD graphics card. Is there something I could be doing to fix this? Thanks.

Without knowing the actual specs of your computer, the best thing I can suggest is to see if the graphics drivers needs to be updated, or if you've got dual graphics, you may need to see if you're computer can see and use the better graphics.

Obviously, you had to install the game on your new laptop. Have you checked the graphics settings? Not sure what the default setting is, but maybe it sellected a lower quality setting.
