NateYouk Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Hi, I'm running fallout 3 goty off steam. I started a new game and it worked just fine at first, I got to the part where my father asked me to walk to him as a child and i saved. I kept on going to the point where I had the read the I'm s.p.e.c.i.a.l. book and exited. When I loaded I was back to before I walked to my dad, but when I did it froze. It does this every time now. I tried starting over, but now it freezes directly after i pick my gender. I tried re installing, verifying my steam cache, and running at the lowest settings all to no avail. Just a side note, new vegas, oblivion, and morowind run fine (they are all running off the steam client as well). I'm running windows 7, 64 bit. I have 8gig of ram, 2gb memory card, and an i5 2.3 ghz processor. So I doubt it is a hardware problem Please help, thanks. -Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway. Open up the .ini file located in My Documents>My Games>Fallout 3.In the FALLOUT.ini find the line bUseThreadedAI=0change the 0 to a 1 then below it add the line iNumHWThreads=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
