Hey, Brother None of No Mutants Allowed here.
If I could make a suggestion: NMA has stickied all the "recommended" patches and mods. These are generally good recommendations. You've included a few of them, but here's the full list (excluding children patch which isn't necessary):
Fallout Patch 1.3.4 ENG TeamX
Fallout1 High Resolution Patch v1.1
Fallout NPC Mod v3.4 English version
Fallout Update Mod v1.2.5 english version
Timeslip Fallout engine tweaks for Windows 2000/XP/Vista

I just applied the resolution mod to my game, but even at 800x600 resolution, I'm getting lag. I wondered if anyone could suggest anything. I'm running an old frankenstien rig that has a Radeon 9800 Pro w/256 meg on board. Wondering what I might could do.

Has anyone gotten the Timeslip mod to work? I'm trying to run fallout in windowed mode under vista and when I use the modified dll from the mod I get an error message saying the game must be played in Windows 95 or NT 4.0 or later.

Me too. I've tried a bunch of different compat. settings and nothing seems to work. Can anyone help us out?

Have you tried changing the compatibility mode of Fallout?
GOG.com sets Fallout to run in Compatibility mode 98/ME automatically, which is correct because it'll run better that way, but you could give it a try changing compatibility mode to 95 or setting it off. Right click the Fallout icon, Properties -> compatibility mode
If it doesn't help I can contact Timeslip and ask him about it

So installing these won't screw up the fixes GOG did to make the game work under XP/Vista?

EDIT: I fixed my problem by turning off my SLI settings.
Deleting the ddraw.dll file from Fallout folder works too.

After installing the resolution mod, I cannot get the screen to scroll in the Radscorpion caves, showing me only the first screen. I'm not totally certain this is a result of that mod, but I had been in the caves previously and had no problem.
