Yep! I think it's solved now. 2.5 hours last night and no crash! Here's the steps for anyone that ever stumbles upon this thread. Credit goes to Redditor Gaavlan and the wonderful folks here: ok so: I opened CMD with admin's right. bcdedit /set nx OptOut rebooted. now I can add everything but fnv4gb.exe. Since I can add falloutNV.exe (the one in exes) I hope that'll do... If you don't know how to add programs to DEP exceptions: Right click My Computer select Properties Advanced system settings In the same tab in the performace box, select Settings DEP should be in the tab completely to the right add every fallout exe (I added the two falloutNV.exe, New Vegas Launcher and NVSE I hope that works... I don't know if I'll have the time to test this tonight

LOL! It's ok. I believe you helped me narrow down the issue which is way more than I could have ever asked for. Reddit is a vast, wide and often times sickening place. :) I'll find a subreddit somewhere. Thanks for everything you've done already.

Wow, this is all coming full circle. I also have a thread going on Reddit where a user and myself are getting the same error message. Just earlier he tried to run DEP exceptions (sorry I don't know the terminology, new PC owner here) but couldn't due to something being different in Windows 10. Here's his response: "...have the same problem with the 4e0d50ed code. I tried disabling DEP for FNV4gb but I can't... it says that I can't disable DEP for the app. Any way to bypass this?" Here's the whole thread: https://m.reddit.com/r/fnv/comments/3l4qzk/long_shot_can_any_tech_savvy_person_interpret/ What you linked me to is way beyond my computer knowledge. But I think the solution is suddenly here. Do you have any advice where I can turn to to figure this DEP issue out? Should I contact Mircosoft or Bethesda? Or perhaps there's a tech forum I can ask on where people that are a little familiar with gaming can chime in? I really appreciate the help. I think you're on to something. Thanks so much for the help so far.

Oh, along with the above. What permissions should I look into? Any idea what types of things Windows likes to change when upgrading? I haven't looked into that part of your post at all.

It's interesting you mentioned the 4GB enabler. Although it would seem logical to count that out - as you stated - I do believe I read somewhere yesterday that reverting back to the original 4GB had stabilized someone's game on Windows 10. Like many folks, I am using the updated version of the enabler, found here: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/55061/ They recommended switching to this one: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/35262 How or why this helped some Windows 10 user, I have no idea. And I can't say with any certainty that this actually worked. The discussion on this was brief. Keep in mind my 4GB launcher came from the NVSE silverlock site. Thoughts? Would this be worth trying? It wouldn't be that difficult to start another dummy profile in MO and create a launcher for it with my current load order and game save. Regarding my video driver, I double checked yesterday and I am indeed up to date, using Nvidia's 355.82 game ready driver for Windows 10. Could this driver be the issue? Anyway, here's how everything went last night. I went into my 4GB exe and my Mod Organizer exe and set both to run as administrator. I crashed twice within a half hour; once when the game was loading assets and the other at an infinite loading screen. This is with my ENB enabled, by the way. This is where I decided to spend the rest of my night researching trying to get any ENB to play nice with Windows 10. Firstly, running on Windows 10, the only way to get the game to launch without an error code was to delete the dxgi.dll and dxgi.fx from my root folder. Doing so causes the game to launch and run, but ultimately crash like crazy. The odd thing is, and this is why I wonder if this is even an ENB issue at all, my game doesn't struggle at all before it crashes. Don't ENB issues generally present themselves with a lot of FPS drops before CTD'ing? That isn't happening here. My game is silky smooth before I crash. Now, my next step was to run my game in Windows 8 compatibilty mode, but there is a fundamental problem with ENB's and Compatibility Mode right now. When changing my 4GB launcher to run on Windows 8 Compatibility, with my ENB enabled, the game launches and runs, but I get no picture whatsoever. All I get is a black screen with sound. This goes for when I reinstated the two DLL's I deleted for running in Windows 10, and also when I launch in Windows 7 compatibilty. I can not figure out a way, any way at all, to get an ENB to work in Compatibility Mode. Period. So that leads us to the final step of the equation: running the game either with the injector version of the ENB or running without ENB's at all. I absolutely adore how this ENB runs and looks so I'd really rather keep it. I tried replacing the wrapper with the injector to see if that would help, but holy smokes, I literally have NO CLUE how to properly install and launch an injector ENB. I don't know which files fo remove and which to replace. I tried running the injector exe, adding FNV4GBexe to the injector.ini before hand, and the ENB is both not recognized and doesn't work. A very in depth thread I found last night said the injector was the solution for the "black screen" error so I'd love to know how to use this properly before eliminating ENB's all together from the equation. TLDR: My game is still crashing like crazy. I may try the original 4GB launcher to see how things go. Compatibility Mode will simply NOT allow me to use any ENB of any kind without a black screen (with sound), and I'd really like to keep this ENB because my game runs really well with it. My crashes seem to happen out of nowhere while my game is running as smooth as butter.

I upgraded my Alienware Alpha i5 4590t (GTX 860M, 8GB RAM) from 8.1 to Windows 10 recently and have been having several different issues. Crashing: When I upgraded from 8.1 to 10, my goal was to continue my current game save. It is modded through Mod Organizer and was running perfectly for several weeks with no crashes whatsoever. I'm launching 4GB, and also have several performance mods (NVSE, NVSR, CASM, NVAC, the memory hack, Onetweak, Performance of the Gods, etc). I used LOOT to sort my load order and FNVEdit to clean my plugins. Since upgrading to 10, I'm now crashing once every hour; sometimes as frequently as every 10 minutes. My game will be running totally smoothly and then suddenly can Windows will give me a message telling me it has to close FONV and will let me know if it finds a solution to the problem. Here is an example of error report: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zfrauf10ob3kb5t/FONV%20Error%20Report.txt?dl=0 Compatibilty mode: Naturally, the logical solution for me would be to run the game in Windows 8 compatibilty mode. However, Windows 10 also introduced a new problem with ENB's (I'm using Dynamo Performance). Windows 10 ENB Problem: Immediately after upgrading from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, when I launched the 4GB EXE through Mod Organizer, the game itself launched but the screen was entirely black; all I could get was sound. I fixed this by going into my FONV root folder and adding ".bak" to the ending of dxgi.dll and dxgi.fx Now my ENB .278 runs fine but now assume it won't unless I change it back when in compatibility mode. Anyway, sorry for the long post, but if anyone can link me to some comprehensive steps to getting my modded FONV running with Windows 10 I'd be very appreciative. From what I've seen, there's no "official guide" yet so I'm really at the mercy of the community here.
