Fallout 3 Crashes every few minutes

[lostone1993]

the problem, i start up fallout play for about 5 min it sort of crashes i guess, I hear can hear noises like the radio, enviromental, people talking. but nothing graphicly updates so i have to use task manager to close it

 

Alright this one has me lost, I have fiddled with all the setting I could think of in the graphic's it has no effect, I tried the memory expansion mod (its name aludes me allows fallout to use more then 2gb ram)

if i try to run with intel hd graphics it crashes stright away, so have permentaly set to use the graphic card's

system specs below

 

I am curently typing on a little phone so please pardon any mistakes I have made ( i shall correct once on a proper keyboard)

Have you set iNumHardwareThreads=2 ?

Google it if you don't know where.
