Alright I solved my buggy Fallout problem and it turns out it was a conflict with the TiVo Desktop software. Apparently they don’t play nice with each other so I’ll have to disable that when I need to play Fallout. I do have this dread with old PC games that I’m eventually going to get to a point where I just can’t run them anymore. But for now at least, Fallout is back on.
In fact, I went to Gizmo’s while I was wearing a wire for Killian and recorded his confession that he wanted Killian dead. I then joined up with the town guard to take out Gizmo and his bodyguard. I’m happy to say I landed the deathblow for both of them, though Ian and Dogmeat both helped. Oh yeah, did I mention I now have Dogmeat? He thought I was his owner so now he’s following me around!
One small problem I’m running into is I’m freaking rich. I have over 3,500 bottlecaps and a bunch of stuff I could sell but no one has enough stuff or money to trade. Killian’s inventory is dried up so I’m guessing I’m screwed until I get to The Hub. I hope to be heading there shortly.

TiVo? Really? that’s the first time I heard of that, thanks

Well not the TiVo actually. It’s the desktop software that lets you download your recorded TiVo shows to your desktop PC. Once I disabled that it worked fine. I’m crossing my fingers!
