"I dont have FFDShow, so it's something else"
I have the FFDShowcodec and it runs fine, well I haven't rebooted since I installed it yesterday but playing it after installing it works for me.
Specs seem perfectly fit to play it, updated your drivers?
i think so?
But im not sure, downloading some drives from Ati's site now

I'm not sure what program to use to check ATI's temperatures in-game, but find a program and check that your not overheating/getting a little too hot.
Unfortunately enough, though, FO3 is quite a buggy game; The railway rifle & headshots especially.
I wish you the best of luck.
Seems like it's not about the heat.
Checked out some info of the issue:
Problem Event: APPCRASH
Program: Fallout3.exe
Version: 1.1.0.35
Doesn't help much :S reported the problem by windows but no solution has been found.
