So I start it up and about 4 out of 5 times the graphics are all messed up, like its all pink and whiteish. So my friend tells me to run it in compatibility mode with windows 98/95. When I use 95 it gives me an error telling me I need DirectX 3.0a or higher (I have higher) and with 98 it gives me an error saying "Error fallout seems to be running in compatibility mode"
I'm running vista 32 bit, any ideas how to fix this?
Compatability mode for XP
Running in 256 colours sometimes fixes it (but still does it in menus)
You can try the [url=http://www.gamefront.com/unofficial-fallout-2-patch-final-version/]non-official patch[/url]
I turned off compatibility mode and it still gives the error.
Use one of the HD patches. That fixed the same problem on Fallout 1 for me.
Also I tried it in XP compatibility mode.

I installed the patch but I still get the running in compatibility mode error. So it wont start.
Its still going on.
