ModelV Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Well steam decided to due a big update on New Vegas after i started experiencing crashes with FOMM. New Vegas OWB DM and HH were all updated. The update took about 4 hours. Anyone else get any kind of update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ModelV Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) Lets see...Disk C/Program files/Steam. I also discovered that the crashes were caused by a virus. Im assuming its malware from the way its acting but i have yet to hunt the damn thing down. Edited October 16, 2011 by ModelV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minngarm Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 You need to uninstall steam and all its lil tidbits and reinstall in the new directory. Also go get malwarebytes it has a free trial version and is great for cleaning out the PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
