I am having trouble playing fallout tactics on my netbook. It is a new netbook (1 GB RAM, 120 GB hard drive). It installed OK but when I go to play it, it blackscreens then blue screens. Anyone have any ideas or tricks. Thanks

Have you got up to date video drivers also what OS are you running on the netbook?
I bought the netbook in January bran new. I am guessing they are up to date. HP auto update the computer every time you are conected to the internet. I am running Windows 7 on the netbook. Thanks, I appreciate your help.
leelysiuk - Can you go into the Event Viewer, find an example of this crash in the "System" logs area and post the info that comes up there? I'm especially interested in the Event ID, if there is one...
Event Viewer can be found like this -
Type "Event" at the start menu. Click on "Event Viewer" when it comes up. Expand "Windows Logs" and then click "System". Let me know what you see...

I did what you said. There are a bunch of information lines. I scrol down to the approx. time I tried to load fallout tactics and there is a error message. The event ID 7026. In the section below that the general states "The following boot-start or system-start drivers(s) failed to load: cdrom. The source was the Service Control Manager. Keywords: classic. Under details the following was listed. + System
