Ecnomoda Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Both the GECK and the game have the "_______ has encountered an error and needs to close" error box. I've yet to find any help for this anywhere, does anyone have any idea what could be wrong? The only things I've installed were FOMM, FOSE, the current Unofficial Patch, the official 1.7 patch, GWLDisable, GECK, and the GECK 1.5 update. I've tried running FO3 from both the launcher and from the .exe with no luck. Has anyone else encountered something similar and found a fix...? This is frustrating beyond belief. I love Bethesda to death but this is getting out of hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonger Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 if neither of them has ever run on your system check that your system meets minimum requirements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecnomoda Posted February 9, 2010 Author Share Posted February 9, 2010 if neither of them has ever run on your system check that your system meets minimum requirementsIt does, as far as I'm aware of. My system specs are in my profile. I think the only thing I don't have according to the Wikipedia page is a processor at 2.4 GHz, mine is at 2GHz, although it should still run fine.

Graphics Card:: ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 Series (256MB)You do know that this chipset is NOT listed in the supported chipsets and other posters in this forum having similar x200's have had failures too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainkbx Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 My computer is right on the recommended level for the game, and it was running, but now it won't go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be the issue I'm having, which would be disconcerting, but I'd like to explore other options if available before coming to that conclusion. Plus, even if it were my chipset, wouldn't GECK still run? Also, to the other posters in here - my game hasn't even made it to the title screen, not even a sound, I get a black window, and then the error box. Please make your own thread instead of jumping into mine with your unrelated problems and causing confusion. Hmmm.... maybe the problem lies in the sound codecs if it's getting into trouble before making a sound? Bethesda's had that problem before with Morrowind, if I remember correctly.

Vagrant0 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) Does the error box offer any sort of information as to what the error is? From the launcher, have you clicked "options" to generate a .ini for your system? Edited February 10, 2010 by Vagrant0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the launcher, have you clicked "options" to generate a .ini for your system?No, the error box gives me no information, it simply tells me it has an error and closes. Yes, I have, since I needed to change my resolution. I've tried playing it on the default settings and at my changed ones, and neither has made a difference. The error I'm having looks almost exactly like the ones here. http://www.techsupportforum.com/1789326-post1.html The only difference is that in image three, the AppVer and ModVer is 1.7.0.3 and the offset is 0074de75. There wasn't a fix for me in there, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecnomoda Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 UPDATE: I tried running this "Skullptura Fix" thing that I found online, not sure what it did or was supposed to do but that didn't fix my problem either. Unless there are any other ideas about, I think I'm screwed. I'll try an uninstall and reinstall if I don't get anything else within a week.
