Fallout 3 on pc
04/07/09 1:20 pm | #1
I installed the game but every time I go to run it I get a windows error. Says windows is looking for a solution then I have to restart or shut the program down manually. Just wondering if anyone else ran into this problem and if so how to correct it.

It should be only a couple months old. I gave up on it for now. I'll go back to it when I feel the need to be fustrated some more by microsoft.

Make sure your Games for Windows is updated to the latest version that was my problem.
