I was a little apprehensive about upgrading- 8.1 was not an improvement on Win 7... The only issue I had was that my Nvidia driver needed updating. Other than that, it runs fine. It even takes significantly longer before FNV inevitably crashes (Never happened with Dead Money, however...). :confused:

Did that. No joy. Is the old version of FOMM so big that you couldn't email it? I will be more than happy to E-mail you an older version I have backed up, When did he take down all the old versions, I have not checked yet, I am on 5 threads so I am boing, boing bounce,boing around. I don't know, except that the new one is from earlier this year. Despite the so-far disappointing results, I want to reassure you I appreciate your help. At least when I get around to re-installing W7, I'll know we tried everything. :thumbsup:

Precisely. See my post above with the FOMM error screen. I went to the Nexus page for FOM download, read some comments indicating issues with FNV, but these were for an earlier version of FOMM. I messed with it, disabling UAC checks, set FNV to run on WXP SP3, and got that error above. Downloaded newest net framework: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=17851 ran FOMM fine after. Now I have successfully returned to square 1. I have become so accustomed to every effort failing that if I ever just get to the start menu, I might $hit myself. :confused:

Just....bookmarked this f*cking thread. Pathetic. :facepalm:

You reminded me- I did set FNV to run as WinXP SP3. FOMM runs fine with newest net framework, even with FNV in comp mode. How is your game now? Are you getting any progress?

Hmmmm... Never mind. Installation of latest net framework cleared it up. Now I can get back to crashing on slide 2.... :wallbash:

I am using FOMM 0.13.21, and there is no "install tweak tool" option under "Tools." I am at a dead end here.

I am assuming you mean the Live Redistributable, dated 5/8/11. That's what I'm wiping.

Tried the following "fix" from http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2010/10/fallout-new-vegas-fix-crash-freezing.html: Fallout 3 New Vegas freezing & random freezes mid game, BSOD errors Random freezes including BSOD errors can occur on certain multi core hardware environments due to incompatibilities with the game engine. You can try to avert these issues by limiting the game to use only two cores. Open fallout.ini file in My Documents\My Games\FalloutNV with a text editor such as Notepad. Look for the string bUseThreadedAI=0 Change it to bUseThreadedAI=1 Add another line beneath the above, iNumHWThreads=2 Save and close this file. Repeat steps 2-5 for fallout_default.ini file in installation dir (default C:\Program Files (x86)\Bethesda Softworks\Fallout New Vegas) >>>Status: FAIL :wallbash:

I am reading posts that say that FNV is not GFWL, so I'm not sure why it should be a source of trouble. Anyway, hoping for something that will get this damned game running again.

Here is a screen of my install list. I don't know if GFWL is supposed to show up here or in a list of Windows components. I have the latest GFWL installed. It shows up in my start menu.

My installed program list. I tried FNV again with the latest GFWL. Crash-o-rama. :dry:

What if I try to GFWL disabler mod? I guess I'll try it. I actually don't see GFWL in my Control Panel.
