Hey all. Not sure when this started but Fallout 3 has been crashing or freezing my computer pretty regulary and randomly when playing the game. I have no idea why and have been troubleshooting online to try and find solutions but not much has helped. I say randomly because it has happened while doing next to nothing in the game, but does seem to occur the most when going through transition stages (loading screens), such as opening a door to a new area or fast travelling. I recently made it to Rivet City which has many loading screens when going between decks of the boat, so every 2-3minutes I get a crash. Anyway, any help would be appreciated as i'm getting quite sick of these crashes.
My computer is about 7 years old, but it runs all other games pretty well. Fallout has been the only real problem. When I reboot after a crash it notes the serious error, I sent the data report which it got back to me saying that it is unknown what caused the error but may be audio related. Here's the info for my system. (Note: im not that great with computer knowledge, obviously)
Computer:
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU
6700 @ 2.66GHz
