    fallout 3 for windows 10

    I've tried compatibility mode before, and it didn't work. this time, unfortunately, was no exception. I've tried all compatibility packs and this error persists: "the procedure entry point SfmDxGetSwapChainStats could not be located in the dynamic link library
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout 3\d3d9.dll."

    any ideas?

    EDIT: I've deleted the DLL file and it seems to work now. YAY! windows ten appears to me to be far worth the upgrade, even for gamers, and workarounds CAN be found!

    for future people with issues:

    i am running windows 10, 8/9/15

    compatibility mode: vista pack 2 (may not be important)

    DLL file (D3D9) deleted from the fallout 3 folder

    I AM running modded, but may not a problem

    I AM running steam edition NOT GOTY.

    good luck.

  3. fallout 3

    Trying to play fallout 3 on steam. I get this error message " the ordinal 43 could not be located in the dynamic link library c:/windows/system32\xlive.dill."

    All research I have done on the matter seems to suggest this is an issue with Games for Windows Live. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, repairing, everything I can find. Please help.
