Hey guys my name is Mark, and I just installed Fallout 3 on my computer today. I was so excited!! I had a few problems with the startup but I easily fixed those. But when I went to start a new game, and came to the part where you enter your name. It typed numbers!! WTF!! I just entered 3456 and didn't really mind, but when the part came where you have to go to your dad as a baby, my keyboard did'nt work at all. So fustrating. I then remembered that I have an Xbox360 and could just plug in one of the controllers. I did exactly that and it worked. But when I came back to the keyboard...no luck.. Can Anyone help me?? I would so appreciate any help that is provide or advice!!

Thanks!!

As for why the numbers I have no idea, but Fallout 3 only accepts one input at a time, Xbox360 Controller (xinput) or Keyboard. Navigate to Settings -> Controls and set 360 Controller to "OFF" this will regain control with the keyboard.
