So i am kindda late when it comes getting into fallout, but better late than never I guess ;)

As I am sure most of you know, fallout is a game that has quite a few bugs. There one paticulair bug is becoming quite a reoccurring issue. The screen and the controls will freeze completely, but the audio will still keep on going. This happens after the first 10-or-so minutes of gameplay, and after that it happens more and more frequently.

I'll admit my computer is a bit of age by now, and I usually end up setteling for the worst graphics for the game to run smoothly, however this doesn't seem to help. Besides, using task-manager, I can see the game doesn't take up more than 50% of my CPU, so I doubt that it is because my computer is overworked.

I have already tried downloding patches sand I already tried altering the code, as I saw was suggested so many other places on the great interweb, but this didn't help, and in fact, I think the latter might actually have worsened the issue...

So I was wondering if any of my fellow escapians had any other suggestions for how to fix this problem??

My PC version of Fallout 3 was so unstable (it always used to give my computer the BSOD) that I gave up on it entirely, and have just bought the GOTY for my xbox.

So I'm afraid that's the only help I can give really.

Just one thing, have you downloaded the unofficial Patch from Fallout3nexus? it's a long shot but it may help.
