Video game testing would fit your love of video games and computers without the coding, but that job often comes with grueling hours and as far as software testing goes it's right at the bottom of the pay scale. Becoming a software tester in just about another industry pays much better. Within the software field you could also look to become a project manager - if you're working as a PM in a software organization you'll need to have a good understanding of what's going on technically but you're not in the trenches with the code at all. A PM's job is to make sure everyone knows what they need to do and they can deliver it in time and it all works out in the end. There's also other jobs such as program manager or requirements analyst who would help determine what the customer wants and what should the software look like. Or you could go more of an IT route - look at computers and networking in terms of setting up, maintaining and planning for future computer systems. A starting job in this field is often working IT Support Desk helping other employees get their workstations configured and set up and helping them solve problems. If you like trying to figure out and solve a problem, then this is a good way to go.
