Fallout 3 Installed, but not showing up

Post » Mon Feb 14, 2011 1:32 pm

Ok. So I bought fallout 3 GOTY edition today. I installed it on my brand new Windows 7 64 bit edition laptop. It doesn't show up in program files, or anywhere else. Only things that show up are save files and 3 other files. Have to open it from the disk autorun in order to play. I realized this because I wanted to install a mod, but couldn't find the necessary folders to do it. I entered the folder names in search, none of it showed up. Looked in my program files, not there? Anyone else have this problem? Also, it said it installed games for windows live. I didn't find that anywhere. I don't have a shortcut for either, and despite having bought it from a disk, never had to, (or found out how) to register it. I find this all very strange and confusing. I just wanna mod!

I believe the default path should be something like. C:\Program Files (x86)\Bethesda Softworks\Fallout3
