Mods not showing up in-game?

First off, forgive me if this is in the wrong section. I'll be straight forward:

 

I have nexus and Fallout NV: Dead Money. I have the gas bug where i continue to take damage even outside the poison gas. So far, I have 3 mods installed to the game, including 2 bug fixes and 1 Freeside makeover mod. None of these are working. I run NMM as admin, run NV as admin, installed and uninstalled the mods over and over, ran the game from Nexus and tried running it from the launcher, and the mods refuse to show up in-game. I still take continuous damage, and Freeside is still the same. What am I doing wrong? My Fallout is located in C:/Program Files(x86). Is that wrong? Please help.

PS. Forgot to mention my "Data Files" option is not greyed out. I can open it.

The default install location, Program Files, is the worst place a moddable game like Fallout: New Vegas to be. The built-in file protection that Windows uses automatically blocks attempts to change the programs installed there, like mods. Your best bet, to start with atleast, is to uninstall the game, and re-install it in another location, like C:\Games for example. Once installed in the new location, your bug fixes and other mods should work fine.

If this works I will worship you as an almighty deity. Will I keep my save? I have many hours of legit non-cheating gameplay and I do NOT want to lose it.
