GECK won't start

Hi. Like my name says, I'm a noob when it comes to modding. I'm pretty proficient in modding oblivion, though I do have a lot of problems (though I've learned alot.) Anyways, I downloaded the GECK, and I hate to have to say this, but I can't get it to open. It always says that redownloading it may help, and I've done that several times. Also, I've downloaded the patch. Anyone know what could be the problem? Thanks. TheNoobModder 20:07, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi TheNoobModder, welcome to the wiki. As you may have noticed, I've marked the page you created for deletion and moved its content here. New pages should only be created for new content, whereas talk pages are good for asking questions. Your user talk page is a good place for asking questions not related to a specific article, as are the Forums. Also, please sign your posts on talk pages with ~~~~, which will automatically sign them with a timestamp as well as your username.

The usual reason why the GECK won't run is that it has been installed in the wrong place, which results in a "missing dll" error message. You need to make sure that you've installed the GECK in the same folder as your Fallout 3 or Fallout: New Vegas game. If this doesn't seem to be the issue, could you describe what exactly happens when you try to open the GECK?
