   • Fabian, Check your video options, notice that you can change it to max but if you do the advanced settings you’ll notice that the options will be at minimum requirements or disable, just change it one by one, if you think your computer can go through the max videos options choose it.

   • I checked that and the games still freezes u.u Any other idea?

   • have you change your settings to minimum or disable? check your system specs (your video card, memory, etc.) or let me know more info about your problem… thanks…

   • The graphics are set high because my computer exceeds the recommended capacity. Should i lower them eventhough my computer can run it?

   • Please try it on minimum settings and rise it one by one so you’ll know what is the best settings for your system… sorry for the trouble …

2. I think i will reinstall, because i play it with the minimum setting and it still crashes after i play about 5 mins. Do not worry :) You do us a lot of good by uploading all this games. Thanks

   • Hi Fabian,

     Here’s what i found on searching to solve your problem please read…

     Here’s what you do:
     Obviously, Install the game. Since it’s a full iso, this won’t be hard – simply mount it using Daemon Tools or %120 Alcohol

     IF YOU CRASH, TRY THIS FIRST
     1. Open up the file “FALLOUT.ini”. It will appear without the file extension – simply “FALLOUT” (You can locate this by navigating to – “My Documents > My Games > Fallout3)
     Open it, in a notpad with code should open. Find the line:

     bUseThreadedAI=0

     (Easy trick — “Ctrl+F” copy and paste the above into the text box)

     change it to:

     bUseThreadedAI=1

     add another line after it and insert:

     iNumHWThreads=2

     Save and close

     Why?
     “This will limit the game to 2 cores and prevent the engine bug from causing the game to freeze, because apparently the engine has some issues with processors that have more than 2 cores.”

     What that means basically is that the game wont run if you have more than a specific number of cores. This is due to an unspecified reason, however you just coded the game to only run on 2 cores, the maximum it is allowed to run on

     If you still have problem after you implemented this method just let me know…. thank you…

3. The game took a lot longer to crash, but in the end it crashed u.u
   I can notice that the game ran a lot smoother than the last time i ran it. Any other ideas? :( I am sorry for being such a bother u.u

    • oooh, never mind. for those who are still in trouble, try downloading the FMM (fallout mod manager) you can find it in nexus. then click on tools above, then click on install tweaker. then use “fake xlive.dll” or something, and that should run it :)
