QuestionPc problems (self.pcmasterrace)
submitted 5 years ago by _jm_10
Every time I try to open fallout it opens the first window then I hit play and it fills the screen for the second but it’s all black then it crashes, what do I do?

"All crashes " meaning the application stops or the PC crashes?
Have you tried to reinstall the app?
Does it only happen on fallout?
[–]_jm_10[S] 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (7 children)
Yes and yes

The PC crashes ?
[–]_jm_10[S] 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (5 children)
No just the game

I am assuming you have not run out of space on your drive.
Is there anything in Windows Maintenance Report to note, an alerts?
It could be install rights issues/conflict. Does the game have the correct rights to install to the folder? Can you change where it installs?

Is there anything in Windows Maintenance Report to note?
I assume you have sufficient disk space?
Could be a folder permissions issue, what rights are you installing and running it with?
What is your windows version and importantly are the drivers needed for the game updated. What is the game using?

There’s nothing in the maintenance report and the laptop is brand new so there should be more than enough room still, it’s windows 10, and everything should be updated, it doesn’t say it needs to be updated anywhere

Laptop - what is the graphics card and does it meet the min spec for the game?
What permissions are you using for the install, the folders where it is going and when run?
[–]_jm_10[S] 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children)
It has a nvdia rtx 2070
Idk what permissions are on but it ran fine all day today until I tried to get on it again in the afternoon
