      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
