Well, s#*!. Hi ho, hiho, it's off to Amazon I go... :-|

Bought a secondhand PC copy of NV:U, saw it had Games For Windows Live, decided I didn't want that anywhere near my new PC, then used a hooky copy to run it instead. Sorry. :ohdear: EDIT: I rechecked the label - Games For Windows is apparently different and not a hideous abomination. Okay... EDIT 2: The loader does make changes to resolution stick in windowed mode - when I set it to 1280x960, the window's slightly off to the right, but it runs. IDEK

I'm not using Steam. Like I said, when I check the settings in the launcher, they're already set correctly, indicating that it's reading it. Then it seems to discard those settings and drive straight into walls. I can't find any mention of iSize in My Games\FalloutNV\Fallout.ini, where do I add it? Will load up without launcher and report back. EDIT: Nope, still seems to be the same resolution.

In the end all I changed on that were the permissions. I have checked that one and it contains the correct settings. C:\Users\[my username]\Documents\My Games\FalloutNV\FalloutPrefs.ini right now contains: Yet it continues to load up in glorious wrong-o-vision. As I said, I don't know what the hell's going on. :blink:

New installation of New Vegas Ultimate in Windows 7 64-bit after being away from Windows in Linuxland and using an XBox to play NV. Old but still good 4:3 monitor that runs at 1280x1024. Brand-new AMD A10-5700 with 8GB RAM, so it's got enough power. I installed NV in Program Files (x86). I then installed the NMM, but it said it couldn't find a fallout.ini as I hadn't run the game. That was odd, but I shrugged and went on to start the game. It auto-set the quality to Ultra Fine. I set the resolution in the loader (and from then on loads up with the value already set at 1280x1024, indicating that it's been set somewhere). However, after that it refuses to run at anything other than 800x600, no matter what I do. Even after all the solutions I found on here, r/fallout and the wider internet: Started the loader as administrator and changed the settings there. That just made me start a new game in Admin account - at the default resolution; Downloaded Configator (which couldn't find the first two .ini files, so I pointed them towards ones in my home directory); Edited iSize in the FalloutPrefs.ini files in my own and Admin accounts (couldn't find iSize inside Fallout_default.ini); Added Write and Modify permissions for Users to Fallout_default.ini What am I missing? I'd really rather not reinstall NV, as that was beyond tedious. Plus, it's better I learn how to fix it now as opposed to when I have 50 different mods.
