This is happening to me as well on Windows XP. I've tried everything including reinstalling the game from Steam. I can't enter Westside any more without a crash even using the console. I never had this problem until a few days ago, and it may have started after installing the new patch, 1.2.0.314.

Actually empPill said he tried shutting down all his mods at the beginning of this thread.

 

The good news I was finally able to work around this. It seems to crash if I begin with any save I made prior to the new patch, even if the save was only in Doc Mitchell's house. I started a brand new game with no mods and was able to get to Westside. I added all my mods back to this game and I am still able to go there.

Ah yes he did. Although when shutting them down doesn't resolve the issue, it helps to know what was running in the first place. I can't think of a mod that actually would focus on west side, if anything it be a mod that made broad changes across the wasteland.

 

As with any new patch, there's always the possibility of it being "incompatible" with previous saves, though even if this is the case its likely that a mod played a role in the complication. Before getting too crazy with changes, I'd recommend using console commands to test it, starting from the beginning, activating map markers and try fast travel and see if the problem persists as far as the beginning - just make sure to leave doc's house so the scripts finish (Start a new game, rush through the opening chat/tutorial with doc, walk outside, fast travel.)
