I am using Steam. I have a fresh install of Fallout 2. Game is not in Program Files. I installed FoRes 1.5. The game launches. After selecting new game and picking character the gray screen occurs and remains. I hear the music. I can open the menu.

What operation system do you have?

Possible solutions:
Try to change the graphics mode in the Configuration Program, different mode than the default one might work for you.
Install DirectX 9 from this link: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download ... px?id=8109
Run the game as administrator.

I had the same problem on Win10. I installed DirectX 9, changed the renderer to DX9 from DirectDraw 7 and I ran the program as administrator - the problem disappeared.
