        memsize=32 does go in the dosbox.conf, sorry to confuse them. They look similar, I don't type very well.

          It is really slow too so don't be too disappointed. It is a great game though, you should play it on your computer.

              64 would work, I can't say what isn't working. Usually if it closes after loading. Is it going back to dos? Are you seeing a fallout splashscreen?

              Are you using the Fallout.exe with DOS32A patched, or the regular one from patch 1.2 or 1.1 with DOS4GW? Either would work, but I patched the other one with dos32a myself, so maybe it is just weird.

                  Are you using lr-dosbox?

                      Yeah lr-dosbox loads configuration a little differently, like the cycles will be at default 1000, and I don't ever use it to understand it.

                      Well heres my autoexec from Fallout.conf, it's nothing special, and it obviously isn't finalized.

                      [autoexec]
                      # Lines in this section will be run at startup.
                      # You can put your MOUNT lines here.
                      @echo off
                      mount c "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc"
                      #mount c "/home/pi/RetroPie/memorycard/dos"
                      #set PATH=%PATH%;C:\bin;C:\setedit\bin;C:\bin\HXRT\BIN
                      c:
                      cd Fallout
