Hi all.

When I start Dirt 3, it loads properly but at the screen in which we have to press "Enter or Start to continue", nothing happens even after pressing enter key.... :(

This is happening from last time the game got updated(about a week ago).. What is a possible solution to this?? I dont want to reinstall it as it will again take ages to download from steam... :(

1.No need to press enter if you have a controller. Press START on controller.

Or

2.with any x-box360 controller emulator, assign a key for start button of controller and start.
:-D
