Windows 10 Can't Open Console Command Window - posted in New Vegas Technical Support: Ive recently upgraded to Windows 10 (from Windows 7) and have reinstalled all of my games, when I went to play Fallout New Vegas (steam version) I could no longer open the console command window; This also happens with Oblivion (Steam version) and Morrowind (Non-Steam version), however I can open and use. Feel the Heat in New Vegas! Not even nuclear fallout could slow the hustle of Sin City. Explore the vast expanses of the desert wastelands – from the small towns dotting the Mojave Wasteland to the bright lights of the New Vegas strip. See the Great Southwest as could only be imagined in Fallout.

- Second, the game runs natively on Windows 10. Third, you are experiencing a Steam client issue and not a game-specific one. It just happens to affect NV right now for you. Make sure that you run Steam as an admin. Try to run the game by directly starting its.EXE file.
- So I bought Fallout: New Vegas on Steam for 300 Philippine Pesos. Problem is, it crashes when you start a new game. Thanks to this guy on Steam I can start a new game thanks to this mod.Edit: I forgot to mention that I have a Strix GTX 1080 and the mod spoofs the Geforce 7900 GS on the options.

Fallout New Vegas: Windows 10Posted by wadewilson on 8/24/20 at 10:09 pm
I have this game on Steam and good old games. Cannot get it to run. Yes, I've updated the video card driver.
It gets through the intro videos and just gets real choppy as soon as you open up in Doc Mitchell's.
Has anyone encountered this?

I have not had that problem with FNV but I've heard Fallout 3 is supposed to be almost unplayable on Windows 10. I played Tale of Two Wastelands TTW on Windows 10 recently and it is smooth as butter. TTW lets you play 3 and new vegas at the same time in the new vegas engine. Downfall of that system is a lot of mods don't work but it comes with a lot of it's own mods and quality of life improvements.

There's a mod that helps with it on Nexus mods.
I think you also have to set it to run in compatibility mode and do something else. I haven't played in a year but I remember the Fallout subreddit is where I found the solution.

I didn't even think about Reddit. I'll dig around on there. Thanks.
FWIW, I'm trying to run this game clean start, no mods. The only things I currently have on are DLC.
Nexus is kinda funny about loading mods on a game you have no save files on anyway.
