Downloaded Windows 8.1 thinking it was all good... nope.

When I play a Steam game, there appears to be an orange/yellow tint and the bottom right corner says something like this:

And then when I want to play Crysis 3 or Battlefield 3 on Origin, my games are gone. I tried to reload them and nothing happens. If I try to start any games from the Start screen instead of Origin, it tells me that I need the product code.... well I bought it online so..

I have this exact problem except my games aren't vanishing in origin. I can't get my steam games to even run but, BF3 will run and it has the same overlay with stereoscopic 3d settings (I never use 3d/it did this entirely on its own.)
