I bought a retail version of Fallout 3 GOTY edition for Windows LIVE tonight and am having a problem I've never seen before. Upon installing both the game and the downloadable content, no desktop icons and no files for the game appear. I ran a search of my hard drive and it didn't return anything. The game does run though as long as the CD is in and you run it from the disc. Also, I was never asked to enter a CD key until the second time I loaded the game and even then, it didn't ask for one until I tried to login to Windows LIVE.
After booting it from the CD, I played for about half an hour and there were several autosaves throughout the short time I played. The game suddenly froze and so I closed via the task manager and when I rebooted, zero saved games. I was hoping to install the game and it go directly to my Steam account but that is clearly not the case. I have no idea what to do about this or how to fix it so any help anyone can offer with this would be much appreciated.
My mobo, CPU and GPU:
MSI p67-gd65
Intel i 2500k
MSI gtx 560ti twin frozr II
If any other specs are needed I can post them as well.
