        @shavecat Remove the exit at the end of the autoexec section so you can see the actual error.
        And please, try to use text when posting instead of images - it makes it impossible to copy/paste configurations. If you're using Putty, it's enough to select the lines you want copied and they're automatically copied to the clipboard.

          Thanks , i dont really see the error problem (with the AUTOTEXE) .
          but i loaded it direct with the Fallout.exe file.

            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.

                      Nah that patch will work.
                      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
