I am unable to enter the strip, starts to load...then freezes black. Tried different loads, going through freeside, fast travel to strip gate etc. I searched internet and found others with same problem. "A Prophet of Fortune" posted same problem on a different thread.

This has happened to me before corrupted my data had to make a new game anyway, Have you tried wearing an "Old cowboy hat" while trying to enter? supposedly it will avoid this though I have not tried this my self.
