Does this occur on other types of save as well? Sometimes Fallout 3 will begin to crash on save, which I presume is due to some form of corrupted or invalid data that it attempts to write to the save file and fails, and the only reliable remedy that I know of is to return to a previous save file. If you don't have any previous saved games, this would be a good time to start using http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=3729.

One thing that you could try is loading your save, then killing yourself (easiest via the console) and loading the save again when prompted.

It's recommended to abandon Quick Save altogether.

Try deactivating Unofficial Fallout 3 Patch - Broken Steel.esp. I had http://www.gamesas.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=1073298&hl= and it was fixed by doing that.

Alternatively, try this fix:

I once found a modified/fixed esp for the unofficial fo3 patch - broken steel via google: http://www.mediafire.com/?z3qmlzyzomy
That also fixed the CTD issues for me so i didnt have to deactivate it.
