That's probably a good thing 'cause it looks like this needs a patch already.

I've heard that there is a problem with Xp. What OS are you using?

This build can take Crysis and CoD4 at low, it can fucking take Fallout.

XP
Radeon 9800pro 256
2g of DDR RAM
3.2 Single Core Pent. 4

Ultra gay setup, but it works.

With settings all Low, I've tried disabling Vsync, running in windowed, lowering the res to lowest, all result in a non-existent loading.

^Get the patch

If not, try this (from Bethesda website):



Problem #1 : Fallout 3 crashing / Fallout 3 crash to desktop (ctd) | Fallout 3 crashing at the start of the game
Solution :
1. Click Start
2. Click “All Programs” (or just Programs, depending on the version of Windows, whether they’re using “classic,” etc.)
3. Go to the ffdshow folder.
4. Click “Audio decoder configuration.”
5. In the left hand pane, click “Info & debug.” This is the second entry in the list.
6. In the right hand pane, near the bottom, find a check box labelled “Don’t use ffdshow in:”
7. Check that box, and in the text box underneath (it lights up when you check the check box), add “fallout3.exe” (don’t include the quotes). If there is already something in that box, put a semi-colon ( ; ) after what’s already there, and fallout3.exe after that. Do NOT use spaces, since ffdshow will think that’s part of the filename. A valid entry would be “explorer.exe;fallout3.exe” (without quotes).
8. Finally, click “Ok” and start Fallout 3.



Good luck.

I spent the 20mins I've been having this problem searching for the answer and never even saw a hint of this.

well, that patch failed miserably, and I have no ffdshow folder

Well, i think the ffdshow folder must be vista. (admit it, tim, vista sucks)

What was wrong with the patch?

Maybe try a different d\l location?

http://www.ausgamers.com/files/details/html/40099

But yeah, I've read plenty of people saying that Fallout 3 + XP crashes constantly.

Mine doesn't even load in order to get to crashing. I'll try that other mirror, but I bet the same shit'll happen.

Secondary patch failed.

It seems that the patches (both UK and US variants) try to run Fallout as part of the patch process. The problem there is, I'm running the patch to fix the problem the patch is causing.

Even the Bethsoft forums don't have anything related to the problem I'm having.

Fuck it, I'll send some emails off to 'em and see what happens.
