"I am having the same problem but running it as Admin doesn't help. I only just downloaded it and when it opens it doesn't have any files loaded. So I go to open the Fallout3 esm to load it's files I guess, it begins loading them but then stops responding and crashes EVERY time. PLEASE help :(" yes you do definately need to click the fallout3.esm, im not sure why it would crashing on just the loading though, have you tried reinstalling it then before the first start right click garden of eden creation kit and go to properties, run as admin and compatability xp sp3, should solve your problems, but if you have already started a mod like me then you will lose it (unless its me being unlucky) Which leads me to my question, does anybody know why when i run as admin i cant find my mod that i spent along time creating? its nowhere on the computer!? and the only that can find it is GECK without admin permissions (which means a crash every 10 minutes) windows 7 home premium 64bit 2.2GHZ AMD dual core ATI radeon HD 4200 4 GB RAM ASUS X5EA Gaming laptop
