Instead of activating the game via CD, try opening Fallout2.exe from ur harddrive(where u've installed it).
Not really sure what's causing that problem for u tho.

well that;s ussualy the way to start fal2
but the cd is giving some strange attitude :/
gonna have some more test on that
before i had xp(win98se)
the problem occured as wel only this time
i installed the game on my cdrom drive and when i inserted it there i could load it from there
but when i placed the cd in the cdwriter it said install again so wtf? ;d
cd just crap as hell or what?

Hmm.. don't worry too much about it. MB the game didnt register itself properly in the registery(I don't think it's the CD).
Well, ur game seems to be working fine as long as u start it the regular way!

well all works fine except ont thing....actually shouldn't complain but..the swift learner perk doesn't work
and i find that very annoying
this is a must have perk in beginning
esp when gaining xp with usinng your skills
and if the cd didn't right properly to the register anyway to fix this?>

Have no idea whats causing that perk to not work properly...
I don't think this'll help(IT MIGHT) but right click on Falout2.exe and then under the compatibility tab, set it to Windows 98.
You've patched the game right? (I think u have, JUST in case)
As for fixing the registery.. I dunno how, sorry!

this is what i found out
putting it on 98 doesn't work !
something is just wrong with the disc and xp or something or the cdrom speed it just too fast for the cd
anywayz
the swift learner perk actually worked
also it said i gained 25 xp points
i actually got 26 on the character creation screen!
but this is real crap cause i need to use my head now for calculation the xp and what bonus i get with the perk
is there some way to fix this? oh sry wrong topic oh but nvd
