For some reason when I try and play the fully patched game (using the no-cd patch) on my 7068 x64 it will randomly stop working, no other fault than the fallout3.exe has stopped responding (Faulting application Fallout3.exe, version 1.4.0.6).
Usually just before it stop responding I have noticed in my crash logs that Games for Windows - LIVE DLL has a problem (yellow warning triangle and not the red circular error warning within the applications logs), about 3 minutes or so before the game locks up.
Title Fallout3.exe (1.4.0.6) XLive 2.0.0673.0 (PANORAMA_V2.00_RTM.081028-1714) C:\Windows\system32\xlive.dll
0x80004005
Games for Windows - LIVE DLL
C:\Windows\system32\msidcrl40.dll 5.000.737.6
I have installed the latest Windows Live but still the problem occurs.
Using the same build of the game and same load order and Vista 32 it runs without any errors and no crashes.
Strange and yet I find that due to the above I now need to run Vista 32 as I want to continue my Fallout campaign but it is too problematic under Win 7.
EDIT:
I might have found a solution to this, still trying it out though...
I am using 2 x 2GB sticks of OCZ PC 8000 memory @ 1000mhz and I have now upped the voltage to 2.1v from 1.8v. As I was getting a stop message 0xc0000005 within the application logs that could be indicative of a memory problem.
