My laptop is a pile of crap that barely runs Crypt of the Necrodancer. Although somehow it manages to run The Talos Principle just fine on decent graphics so I have no idea. It definitely wouldn't be able to run FO3, though. It can't really run Oblivion, so...
If it can't run Oblivion, it is a safe bet it won't run FO3. They use the same engine and I doubt there was much done in terms of optimization.
FO3 was a Games for Windows game so Vista only, complete bitch to get it running on windows 7.
I've had no problems running it on 7, 8 or even 10...
Well I sure did. Crashes when you launch the game, crashes when starting a new game, got to the end where you get of the starter vault and hey, crashes the game
From what I understand I fixed it with a dll file and using the 4gb patched exe.
Huh? I think I got FO3 running on XP.
I dunno I had issues trying to run it on my Pentium 4 system at the time. Just usually anything with GFWL I associate to Vista.
I think there were a few games that were locked to Vista/7 and had GFWL. Can't remember any, though, so I may be talking out of my backside.
Usually if they were then they are a Directx 10/11 game. For instance Gears of War pc port did not recognize windows 7 as a valid OS during my installation. That pissed me off.
