Almost got Geck working it freezes though. Probably need to

I tried to screenshot it but the computer won't let me. Anyways you know when you first load GECK it has some picture with some sentence like this written in the middle. "For all your world creation needs". And "Initializing windows" right underneath it.

Earlier on I kept getting "Missing something something DLB". Moving where it was installed alone didn't solve that. So I finally got an idea of what will maybe solve my problems. Copying and pasting files from my other Fallout folder. It made the "Missing such and such errors" finally stop. But now I have a new problem. It seems to freeze at "Initializing windows". I can move the rest of my computer fine but that part freezes and is always visible on my desktop unless I Del+Esc+CTRL. My theory is that while I improved earlier problems by copy pasting files, that perhaps I copied some of the wrong things into that folder causing it to freeze, so anyone know what files I need to delete from that folder if that's the case? (Mods and screenshots are working fine, only issue is making Geck not freeze). Or does it have to load for like 10 minutes or something? Or is it a consequence of no 1.5 Geck Update? I try to update to 1.5 Geck but get the "No such file exists" error even if it's in the same folder.

Edit: I simply copy pasted more things in it, and it apparently made it work, never mind. Mods if you want to delete this soon you have my permission as it's taking up space now.

stuff


What they really should have said is:

"Please ensure you install GECK to your current fallout folder"

I also had initial problems of missing dll's & a few other interesting things when trying to get it to run. After creating a complete copy of my Fallout folder, I re-installed the app to that & so far no problems. This should also allow me to go crazy & not worry about screwing up my main install.
