SonDEreix Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 New Vegas is crashing to desktop before it can get to the main menu for some unknown reason. I uninstalled all my mods to see if one of them was causing it, but it's still happening. If it's not a missing master file, what else could cause this to happen all of a sudden? I've had the game running normally for hundreds of hours and without messing with my load order or installing any new mods, this is occurring. I have no idea what to do.

Sadly, upon trying it, nothing has improved. The only difference seems to be that the video configs are automatically changed and window notices pop up......then when i hit PLAY. crash.I was playing a rather smooooooth NV game up until updating, too.

That too could be corrupted, and that's why deleting fallout.ini wouldn't work.There are a lot of fixes that worked for fallout 3, and should in NV too.If someone still has the problem, please post more details about it. (Your system specs too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonDEreix Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 Luckily, it no longer crashes after verifying the integrity of the game cache files. I'm running the latest version of NVSE, Dead Money, and my mods. Hopefully everything keeps running smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
