Freeze/Crash when enabling Radio Stations

[FayEverdunes]

Problem Description:

I was unable to play Fallout 3 goty prior to this issue because it would crash on new/saved game load. The only way I've found to fix it was to rename the Data/Music folder. Since doing that the game rarely crashes and runs mostly fine even with mods. My issue now is that whenever I enable any radio channel the game will freeze up. My mouse cursor disappears and I can only shut it down using ctrl+alt+del.

Oddly enough... I can occasionally get the radio to work but then it will inevitably crash after a short while. For example I turned on Galaxy News Radio and Three Dog was talking and as he said he was about to play some music the radio suddenly went dead silent. When I went to disable the radio my game froze again. Some other odd things are that radios in-world work fine and I can also hear in-game sounds while it's frozen. Does anyone know how to fix it so the radio works? I always really enjoyed listening to GNR while playing.

If anyone knows a way to fix this that I haven't tried yet it would be greatly appreciated.

What I've tried to fix it:

• Changing Music folder name (This was required to even play the game).
• Changing the bUseThreadedAI and iNumHWThreads in the Documents Fallout3 folder (FALLOUT.INI).
• Re-installing with .NET 3.1 disabled.
• Compatibility for XP and Vista
• Run as Administrator
• Using d3d9.dll (Also tried with SweetFX and ENB)
• Assigning .ogg and .mp3 files to be run by Windows Media Player
• Using the unofficial fo3 patch
• Disabling Games for Windows Live
• Disabling Second Monitor
• Disabling visual themes & desktop composition
