I had been playing Fallout 4 just fine until I decided to update Windows the other day.
I just did some of the security updates, a few that were published on Oct. 13 and the ones from Nov. 10.
After that Fallout stopped working. When I hit play I would either just get a black screen and have to kill it from task manager, or the intro would flash up for a second and then minimize and I wouldn't be able to bring it back up and I'd have to manually kill it.
Sometimes if I go into options and reset them to default I can get the game to come up, but the screen is usually messed in some way, like being shifted off centre.
Resetting to defaults doesn't always work though.
I did a system restore and it's working fine again. I'm not able to test to see which specific update actually breaks it because system restore on my computer acts kind of funky and fails often, so I don't want to risk doing it multiple times, but like I said above, it was one of the security updates from Oct. 13 or Nov. 10.
I was wondering if anyone else had run into this problem.
Just in case it matters here's my system specs
OS: Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium
CPU: Intel i5-4690
RAM: 8 GB 1600 MHz
GPU: AMD Radeon R9 280 3 GB
