Fallout 3 crashes - 06/23/13 08:33 PM
I am playing Fallout 3 on a new PC with Windows 8 and it crashes frequently. I went to the download section of Bethesda and downloaded a patch to make my version upgrade to V.317. I cannot find out what Version it already was and the patch does not help anyway. Any suggestions? This game ran very well on my older Vista. Frankly, I HATE Windows 8, but that's another story.

Atheen, I'm going to transfer you to Glitches, where our teckies hang out.

Thank you for your answer, but I do not have the Steam version and cannot put it on Steam.
The second link recommends reinstalling. As I am about 1/3 of the way thru, I hate to do this unless I can save my games.

Thank you! I found the Save games, now to try to figure out the rest of the explanation.
I will probably be back. This is my favorite game so far and I don't want to give up on it.
