How to Fix Fallout New Vegas Black Screen After Loading

If you are a fan of Fallout New Vegas, you may have encountered a frustrating problem: the game shows a black screen after loading a save file or starting a new game. The game then stops responding and you have to close it by force. This can ruin your gaming experience and make you lose your progress.

Fortunately, there are some possible solutions to this issue that you can try. In this article, we will show you some of the most common causes and fixes for Fallout New Vegas black screen after loading.

Cause 1: ENB Mod

One of the possible causes of this problem is the ENB mod, which enhances the graphics and lighting of the game. Some users have reported that after installing the ENB mod, they experienced the black screen issue. This may be due to a conflict with the game's settings or other mods.

Fix 1: Remove ENB Mod

The simplest way to fix this issue is to remove the ENB mod from your game. To do this, you need to delete the following files from your Fallout New Vegas folder:

d3d9.dll

enbhost.exe

enblocal.ini

enbseries.ini

enbseries folder

After deleting these files, you should also reset the graphics setup of your game. To do this, you need to delete the following files from your Documents\My Games\FalloutNV folder:

Fallout.ini

FalloutPrefs.ini

Fallout_default.ini

Then, you need to validate your game files on Steam to get a new default config. To do this, follow these steps:

Right-click on Fallout New Vegas in your Steam library and select Properties.

Go to the Local Files tab and click on Verify Integrity of Game Files.

Wait for the process to finish and close the Properties window.

Launch the game and re-configure your video settings in the launcher.

This should fix the black screen issue caused by the ENB mod. However, if you still want to use the ENB mod, you should follow the author's instructions carefully and make sure it is compatible with your game version and other mods.

Cause 2: Mod Conflict

Another possible cause of this problem is a conflict between different mods that you have installed for your game. Some mods may not work well together or may require certain patches or load orders to function properly. If you have installed many mods for your game, it may be hard to pinpoint which one is causing the issue.

Fix 2: Disable Mods One by One

The best way to fix this issue is to disable your mods one by one and see if the game works without them. To do this, you need to use a mod manager such as Vortex or FOMM. Follow these steps:

Open your mod manager and disable all your mods except for the base game and DLCs.

Launch the game and see if it works without any mods.

If it does, enable one mod at a time and launch the game again until you find the mod that causes the problem.

If it doesn't, try disabling some of the DLCs as well and see if that helps.

Once you find the mod that causes the issue, you should either uninstall it or look for a patch or update that fixes it. You should also check the mod's description and comments for any compatibility issues or requirements. You should also use a tool such as LOOT to sort your load order and avoid conflicts between mods.

Cause 3: Corrupted Save File

A third possible cause of this problem is a corrupted save file that prevents the game from loading properly. This may happen due to a crash, a power outage, or a mod installation or removal. If you have multiple save files for your game, you may be able to load an earlier one that works fine.
