I have got it to run on this laptop bfore but now when i try to run it says "fallout requires at least 20.0 megabytes of free hard disk space." but I have 13gigs free! Has anyone had this prob.?

have you tried the smaller installs? otherwise i would run disk cleanup and disk defrag just to see if that helps. maybe that would work

Try a fresh and full reboot. That often works for me.

1. Take any hex redactor, open FALLOUTW.exe
2. Go to position 0x2D8F9 (from beginning of file)
3. Change byte value from 0x73 to 0xEB
4. Have fun!

Actually, you don't need to do what Porshen suggested. I have had the very same problem few times, I always solved it by booting my comp. Okay, it may need more than one boot to get the game work, but the booting helps, or at least it did help me
