Somian Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Hi, I have a new PC and tried to play Falout 3 on it. After Installation (Retail US Version), the game worked. I exited the game after entering my CD-key, because the LIVE update download didn't work (progress bar was frozen at ~95%) and manually installed the 1.4 patch. When i launch the game now, te menu opens for like .5 secs and then, the game crashes with the tpical vista-message that the game doesn't work anymore. my PC s a DELL XPS 730x with a Core i7 740, a GTX280, SB X-Fi Titanium, 6GB DDR3, Vista Ultimate 64. now what? =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circuitous Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Could've been a problem with the update that the manual update just made worse. Try uninstalling, then reinstalling and using the manual patch first, without activating GFWL. See if it fares any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoneyLogic Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Make the reinstall clean, like that: 1) uninstall both (game + gfwl -> its possible that there are various gfwl entries in system control)2) there are two folders left. game dir and my games folder -> delete or rename them for Backup3) clean registry4) reboot 5) install Game and use the correct patch which fits to you game version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
