I bought the Game of the year edition of fallout 3 from Steam. I was able to play it on my old pc, but when i upgraded to a new windows 7 pavilion dv7 my game freezes up on me about 3 minutes into using it. Has anyone else had this problem? My other steam games operate perfectly including high memory games like fallout uses. if anyone can help i would appreciate it.

"Newness" is a totally meaningless description, so when you are ready to assist in your own troubleshoot8ing, you can add all of the information you left off. Meanwhile, all anyone can try is a WAG, and it's not worth wasting space on one of those here.
