Computer Crashed, Need Help Loading From Saves Before Crash

Post » Thu Mar 03, 2011 7:47 am

As the title says, my computer crashed the other day. I did a fresh install of Windows 7 and have reinstalled my Steam copy of GOTY. I have also managed to locate my save files. My only problem is getting the game to load them. When I start the game it doesn't give me the continue or load options. How can I fix this?

Did you make sure to place the old save files back into your new My Documents>My Games>Fallout3>Saves folder?

You are my hero, Starforce9. Somehow when I moved the folder into the new My Documents>My Games>Fallout3>Saves folder the saves didn't go with it. I managed to locate the saves and copy/pasted them into the new one and voila! it worked! Thank you so much! I was really worried that I was going to have to start all over again.
