I have error code 80010514 when i put the disc of Fallout new vegas in, the game dosnt start. i get this screen that says the disc is dirty or damaged or that maybe my cd/dvd reader is broken and that i should try another disc to try. but all other disc's work just fine. and the disc of fallout isnt broken or dirty. second, i read on the internet that some ppl have the same problem. people who had it on fallout new vegas AND fifa 11 AND assasins creed brotherhood AND COD black ops. im just wondering if this will also be with me, i was thinking of getting fifa 11 or black ops

1 - Open a Command prompt using "Run as Administrator" (Start>All Programs>Accessories>Command prompt)
2 - at the prompt type: CD "C:\Program Files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\"
3 - hit enter
4 - a new prompt will appear, showing the above path
5 - at the next prompt type the makelink command (described below)

Command:
mklink /d "Fallout New Vegas" "G:\games\Fallout New Vegas"

(*** "G:\games\Fallout new Vegas" is an example. You will want to put the correct path to your Fallout New Vegas install folder.)

6 - hit enter
7 - This should create the representation of a new folder in the "proper" steam directory. (If you were to open this folder, it should take you to the real "Fallout New Vegas" folder, wherever it actually resides.)
8 - You will need to re-create any shortcuts using the new "proper" path. (IE C:\Program Files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\Fallout New Vegas\FalloutNVLauncher.exe)


Q & A

- What did I just do?
You created a Portal between two folders to make them capable of existing in the same time-space. (For lack of a better layman's description) Be wary, this may cause the release of exotic particles into a neighboring universe.

- Why did this work?
When the computer now tries to find Fallout it will go to the default directory, and find the "Fallout New Vegas" symbolic link (again represented as if the folder were actually there) and use it as a window to the actual install. The game will be fooled into thinking it's using the default install directory, when it is not.

- Why not just use a shortcut?
Because it won't work.

Don't think it's possible friend. sorry.

I had a the same problem before. Sometimes, a blu-ray will simply not work. I can't remember what game it was that did it to me, but I took it back to gamestop and traded it for another of the same game and it worked just fine. Hope this helps.

You've wiped your data. Gotta restart, I'm sorry :/ Go with 10 luck this time and break the casinos :D

when you FIRST put the game of year edition in there will be a screen that comes on with the additional content you need to have all of those boxes checked for it to load those programs into your hard drive or other storage device. You can check to see if its installed by going into my xbox-system settings-memory-hard drive/memory storage/games-fallout 3 and looking there. Otherwise you'll need to reinstall and double check the additional content is checked before proceeding

Any Error-codes like 80010514 ?

This doesn't help much but I have the exact same problem and I KNOW it is not the disc. We have two PS3's. 1st one is a 120g and the 2nd is a 250g. We bought two disc, one for my husband and one for my son. Our 120g reads and plays both disc perfectly but when we put either one of the disc in our 250g we receive the 80010514 error. Neither disc will play in the 250g and both play perfectly in our 120g. We have tried everything Sony has told us all the way to the complete hard drive restore (the 14 hour one) Nothing will make it play. It recognizes the game and allows us to see backround game picture with option to start , get info, or internet search but when you start you get that error every single time. Like the guy above everyone of our other games and blu-ray disc work perfect. Playstation sent us our box to send in for repairs today so we will see what happens but from the research we have checked our guess is 1 of 2 things. Either there is some type of bug with the 250g not being able to run this specific game OR this could mean the blu-ray reader is about to go out but has not yet. I say this because I read something about Black Ops running faster and harder in the drive than other games because of some type of smooth texture graphics type thing. Not sure exactly what all that means but something about running the disc harder than other games. Kinda makes me think blu-ray is on the verge of going but who knows. So far I have only found others with the 250g having this problem. Luckily it's still under warranty so it's in Sony's hands now. Just hope they hurry and have some answers.

Hello Sir

You Probleme was

80010514 Disc error detected. Retrying operation.

ok l wait for showing me this 80010514 and then

your error means this according to what I could find out : 80010514 - Disc error detected. Retrying operation. Do your other games work. If so, then you may have a bad game disc. Or it may be scratched or dirty. If your other discs work, then I would try this game on someone elses unit, or check it for dirt/fingerprints. If that doesnt work, you could try a cd lens cleaner disc..it may help.
