Your first pic kinda failed there. I cant see it because it says "Forbidden".

Nobody cares Snipe, nobody cares

(Yes Alt, I stole your line once more)

"We were inhuman beings....butchers on a field of corpses....corrupt and depraved....only a sum of viscera, blood, and bone - Creatures without soul."

Oh it was the same pic, I didnt know that. I guess it kinda works then

Is that a song or what?

"We were inhuman beings....butchers on a field of corpses....corrupt and depraved....only a sum of viscera, blood, and bone - Creatures without soul."

I've never seen this commercial on TV. Hmm....

"We were inhuman beings....butchers on a field of corpses....corrupt and depraved....only a sum of viscera, blood, and bone - Creatures without soul."

Oh lol, I thought they were both on this commercial

Now that makes more sense.

"We were inhuman beings....butchers on a field of corpses....corrupt and depraved....only a sum of viscera, blood, and bone - Creatures without soul."

I really like My Chemical Romance, and I have their 2 first albums, but this song (along with the video clip) is utter crap

"We were inhuman beings....butchers on a field of corpses....corrupt and depraved....only a sum of viscera, blood, and bone - Creatures without soul."

You know what? I really wish that Fallout 3 would work on my PC... Damn you compatibility problems!

I mean, New Vegas is good on my Xbox, but I really liked the "we're all screwed" atmosphere to Fallout 3, while New Vegas is so much more... regulated. I mean, they have a proper government-like system there in the form of the New California Republic. Sure, there's Caesar's Legion trying to rape and pillage the Mojave Desert, but not while Limey Man's on standby with a rusty bolt-action rifle!  Though if the Brotherhood of Steel are anywhere in New Vegas it's gonna be a tough choice between them and the NCR.

Screw it... BoS all the way! Saving the Wasteland through superior firepower! Give a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Discover an intact fusion reactor, and they'll be warm forever!

Nonetheless, I miss Three Dog...

"They're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, and they're behind us. They can't get away this time!"

Ok, I understood like half of what you said Partly because it has been like 76723453 years since I last played Fallout 3, and partly because I havent played any of its DLCs and also havent played New Vegas.

Anyway, what compatibility problems are you having with the PC version of Fallout 3? I might be able to help you.

"We were inhuman beings....butchers on a field of corpses....corrupt and depraved....only a sum of viscera, blood, and bone - Creatures without soul."

First of all, I really hope that you have the original version of the game, because this DOES seem like a common corrupt crack .exe file from a pirate release of the game.

If you do, then.....uhm PM me

Secondly, if your game is original, the first thing you should do is contact support, to find out that they dont give a rat's ass whether your game works or not.

Also, if your game ISNT a pirate version, then this sounds like a common "OMGWTF-my-OS-is-screwed-up" kind of case. In which case I cant really help you, because it could be anything.

Things you can do that might fix this problem:

1. Make sure you have all up-to-date drivers installed for your Motherboard, Gfx card, Sound Card, and if you have an AMD CPU, the necessary drivers/fixes that AMD releases from time to time.

2. Make sure you have the latest DirectX installed to your Windows. If not, you can easily download it from microsoft.com

3. Make sure you have all the necessary Windows updates required for the game to work. Things like, .NetFramework, MS Visual C++, Service Pack 3, are essential for Windows to run certain programs/games. I'm sure you already know that.

4. Lastly, if all else fails, then run a deep-scan virus search with an Anti-Virus that you can trust. It is a possibility that a virus might be interfering with running programs and kill certain processes.

I have 1 more thing in mind, but I need more info/feedback on your issue, in order to help you further.

P.S. As I understand, Fallout 3 doesnt freeze in a very specific part of the game, right? The crashes are random??

"We were inhuman beings....butchers on a field of corpses....corrupt and depraved....only a sum of viscera, blood, and bone - Creatures without soul."

Indication that there is something wrong with your current format of your system.

Btw, I have the GOTY version as well Really worth the price.

My question was if the game freezes at a very specific part of the game, (lets say, when you talk to your father, for example), or if the crashes are random. Doesnt matter if it is a new game, or a saved game.

Also, did you check #1, 2, 3 and 4 on my reply #6992??

Give me some more info so I can help you. You arent telling me much, mate.

"We were inhuman beings....butchers on a field of corpses....corrupt and depraved....only a sum of viscera, blood, and bone - Creatures without soul."

I cant help you any further than that, I'm afraid.

Maybe if the game has a log, you could establish what is causing that issue, but I wouldnt bet my money on it (IF there is a log somewhere in the game's root folder, that is).

How badly do you wanna play the game? Is formatting and re-installing Windows an option for you? Or is it out of the question?

(I know its a pain in the ass for me, and I always try to avoid formatting my system drive )

When you uninstall/install the game, do you check to see if there are any remaining files/folders in the Program Files directory? If not, you should do that. Sometimes I've had even whole games (all the necessary files) left in there, even though I uninstalled them properly.

Anyway, you could try digging something up by googling it, although I'm fairly sure you've already tried that.

"We were inhuman beings....butchers on a field of corpses....corrupt and depraved....only a sum of viscera, blood, and bone - Creatures without soul."

haha, stolen from the top of the page.

What's your rival code Oatesy?

No such thing as a compatibility issue. Unless you are running the game on an Intel Integrated graphics accelerator.

....

Wait a sec.....dont tell me that you DO use an On-Board graphics processor??

OK, give me all the hardware specs of your computer please.

LOL, I'm so dumb, I should have asked this question first

Oh well....

That is true. When you buy a console game, it is guaranteed to run properly without any significant issues.

However, I cant stand the low FPS count on the PS3. It feels as if its hardware is struggling to run certain games, so the developers have to reduce Frames per sec, so the game can run properly, and avoid any visible stuttering. (not gonna mention which games are these, for obvious reasons)

XBOX360 has the best performance/quality ratio I've seen in a console so far.

P.S. Reply #7000, yay!
