seen that in the geck placing female npcs while using dimons type 3 replacer (at least, i think im using dimons). so it could be related to the body replacer
-
try placing falloutnv at the top of your load order and see if that fixes it. if it doesnt, then i have no idea
-
using all four preorder packs? that causes a lot of issues
-
run a search on the nexus for FOIP. contains compatability patches for fwe, mmm, fook2, etc
-
no crash dump that ive seen, but a lot of ctds are either computer related, mod related, or seat-to-keyboard interface related...

you need some form of ArchiveInvalidation. you can get it through Fallout Mod Manager (FOMM), through an external invalidator (theres a couple on the nexus), or by modifying your fallout.ini
or the texture files werent installed properly

usually if you get that message, it crashed.
we need a little more information than "it crashed, please help". what were you doing when it crashed? is it a random occurence, or does it happen doing a specific thing? your drivers up to date? are you patched up to 1.7? are you running any mods? and if so, post your load order, and we might be able to help.

using all 4 pre-order packs tends to screw things up
-
or it could be that you are using all four pre-order packs? that tends to cause all sorts of problems

In terms of processing power, I'd usually find that the number of cores is irrelevant as the engine can't utilise more than 2 cores. I've checked on my quad core system and the max I've seen is about 2, even with multi-threading enabled for the game. High CPU speed would be more advantageous as faster speed = faster loading and better performance overall.
number of cores == number of threads
like sora said, the gamebryo engine can only use 2 cores max, so go for processor speed over number of cores/threads

4gb ram will be more than enough to handle new vegas, as long as you dont utilize onboard video on your motherboard. a graphics card with at least 512mb onboard ram should do just fine.
-
dont use the quicksave feature. its as bug ridden as it was in fallout 3. instead, i recommend you use some form of a save manager, such as CASM by Cipscis
-
lol. aint it?
-
i agree with Qs suggestion
-
so, they shoot at you before you get to them for the first time? thats normal. they trying to keep you away from the base. just run like mad for the gate
-
or downloaded them illegaly which is a bannable offense here on the nexus
-
press the tilde (~) key and type resetquest 00151403. should take the note from your inventory and reset boones dialogue for his quest
-
no problem. just make sure you download the system tools from nvidias website. itll allow you to tweak the graphics settings of the 250
-
the GTS 250 will definitely be more than enough. i ran the 250 for 3+ years, and its been said to out-perform the newer gtx line of cards with the same amount amd type of dedicated memory.
speaking of memory, i would focus on upping your memory to 4gb at least. the extra memory allow for a smoother gameplay

try turning off steams automatic updates
-
easiest solution: dont use VATS http://www.thenexusforums.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/teehee.gif
-
are they big red ! or purple-ish? the ! are missing meshes, while purple-ish skin is missing textures. if its just missing textures, try removing and then reapplying archive invalidation
-
post load order, maybe we can help
-
Pops:
get the latest version of FOMM. it has support for BOTH Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, allowing you to manage load orders for both games.
As for the mods, like bben said, installing mods for NV is the same as fallout 3, except Fallout 3 mods will not work with Fallout: New Vegas, and etc. the only exception are texture replacers and/or mesh replacers (ie NMCs texture pack). also, be sure to get NVSE and toggle archive invalidation, either through FOMM or an outside invalidator
since you stated you have used FOMM in the past, then you should be familiar with its ability to install .fomods.
