WinXP SP3 Rig

Been playing Fallout NV since it came out with very little problems.

After download of Lonesome Road yesterday, I started a new game.

Normally, after I do the training bit then go see Trudy, I go into the Goodsprings store. Now the game crashes to desktop when I try to enter

The only thing I did new this time around is select the "Wild Wasteland" perk during character build.
