GECK Error Assert Line 1996, with added chaos

I'm getting that classic G.E.C.K Error when I try to edit NPCs that goes like this:

-----------------------------------------

 

Assert

file C:/_fallout3/platforms/common/code/bsshader/bsshadermanager.cpp

Line:1996

Abort, Retry, Ignore

-----------------------------------------

So I've been all over the internet trying to look for answers, but once I find one solution, I realize I have other issues running even further and it's created a huge confusing mess that I can't work around.

 

So, for starters, I've done these things:

  • Reinstalled Fallout 3, as well as the GECK
  • Installed the GECK from the official page on Bethesda, as well as updated it to 1.5
  • Deleted and re-obtained the GECK configuration/ini files
  • Cried
  • Set GECK to Run as Administrator and even tried compatibility modes.

I'm running Windows 8 on a 64 bit system, and I have dual processors. I thought I found the solution when I read this:

But therein lies the next issue I'm facing. I have an Intel graphics card as well as an Nvidia PhysX. I don't remember how long ago, because it's been forever since I checked, but I used to have the Nvidia control panel that can be found through the regular control panel. And if I still had it, I'm sure I could have followed the instructions given by user Shiholude and found my fix.

 

The problem there is that the control panel is simply not there anymore, and I even tried to look for fixes for that, but they all point me to the same direction -- Download a fresh driver from the NVidia website. Which would work and all, if only I had a GeForce product, which is the only one the website offers drivers for.

 

So in summary, I'm completely hopeless. I thought I found a fix, but it's being set back by another issue that I can't seem to work around. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong here, or of a solution that doesn't require tinkering with video drivers?
