Also, make sure you patch the games right after install, especially number 2. There are a few gamebreaking bugs in there, and saved games from the unpatched version won't work in the patched version. If you've got a European version you'll also want the children patch, or a handful of quests won't work, alongside a few other game problems associated with there being invisible children running around.

You should be able to get both from NMA or a quick google search.

You might as well get Killap's unofficial patch for Fallout 2, it fixes tons of problems but doesn't actually add anything.

I managed to find a solution. As I said, I installed that MS Virtual Machine and installed my dusty win98 on it, installed Fallout, patched... everything works fine now. Well, I had some problems since I installed Virtual Machine Additions to the w98 system, but minor things.

So... the ultimate solution for every problem was this virtual machine. Oh, and thanks for the tips peoples

Slow? Well, not really, at least I don't see any impairment in speed as of yet. Sure, the VM need some extra resources, but if you have 2 gigs of RAM and some gigs of HDD space to spare, it's quite alright.

You know what is slow? DosBox is slow.

no, vmware is more slow than dosbox, if emulating the same os (dos)

if it's slow for you, you messed up settings
