www.gog.com, $5 for fallout and it's guaranteed to work.

otherwise

You need to go: start, my computer, click on the disc drive while the cd is in, find the game you want to install (they will be on on separate folders), click setup.

/doublefacepalm, you really need to learn to spell. Some of your posts are almost un-readable. Also,look at the box, does it say CD or DVD? Now look at your Disc-drive thing, Does it say DVD or CD?

Ok so the game files are on a DVD. If you have a CD drive on your computer the drive will not be able to read the DVD (CD drives only read CDs). that would cause your error I think.

If this is the issue return the game if you can and buy off of www.gog.com (digital distribution). That is if you want to still play the game.

We know you have one drive. What kind of a drive is it? it will say either CD or DVD on it. IF it is a CD drive your computer can't READ DVDs (which the game is on).

It's not a waste of $20 dollars, if you can please give me your computer specifications I can see if your computer can actually handle the game. While you do that, make sure you have the lastest Direct x installed on your PC
