The Console log after a crash during the black screen after the opening video.

Fallout 3 Game of the Year Edition will crash in semi-random places when
starting a New game. Some of these places include the black screen right after
the opening video, after inputting the player's name, after customizing the
character, During the Birthday scene when you are shooting the radroach with
your BB Gun, etc. It seams to be a script executing error as the game is
usually supposed to be doing something (ie. controlling the radroach so it
doesn't attack the player, moving an NPC somewhere, setting game values(player
name, how the player looks) when it stops. The Game has two different crashes
for these events, but only one shows at anytime. The first one is obvious and
the rarest a Message box pops up saying the Program encountered an error an
needs to close. A stacktrace is able to be retrieved in this case. The second
one is a freeze, ie the game is no longer controllable by the user, and the
render has stopped. Music and sound effects (such as talking) still work until
the program is killed, but the player cannot make any sound effects such as
walking or shooting a gun. The game's menus are also disabled. 

I've followed the hq's guides on getting the program to run, with the small
exception of manually installing the Games for Windows Live client and .Net
Framework. As the game's installer hangs when the installer for those
components have crashed, and thus must be killed to allow the installer to
continue. 


It must be noted that a save game made after Vault 101 will work normally. It's
unknown if it's the result of the save being from another computer with the
game running normally or just after Vault 101 because i can't get the game past
Vault 101 when starting a new game.
