I think you want to use the getmodulehandle function from kernel32 to resolve the relative address. Then you can use the kernel32 readprocessmemory function with the "flat" address.

GetModuleHandle only works inside the current process.

Use the Process and ProcessModule classes to obtain the processes information and to obtain the base address for "nostalex.dat", then use ReadProcessMemory to read the memory at the given location.

Process:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.process.aspx

ProcessModule:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.process.aspx

ReadProcessMemory:
