Here is an answer I got from another post:

I found this searching over internet to find the solution for this problem. It seems most of the laptop with Windows Vista installed have same problem of unable to bring up the console command by pressing tilde(~) key because most of them comes installed with Microsoft eHome IR.

 

It is simple to fix actually. It's either delete this, or modify littlebit to go around this function.

 

Go to 'Device Mananger' -> 'Keyboard' -> 'Microsoft eHome MCIR 109 Keyboard'

 

Right click it, and now you can either choose to 'uninstall' to simply make the tilde key works again in fallout 3, oblivion and other games that does not let you use ~ as console. However, If you feel discomforted uninstalling the driver, then there is other solution.

 

Right click it and instead of clicking 'uninstall', choose 'update driver software'

 

when new window pops up, choose 'browse my computer for driver software'

 

now when new stuff comes up, choose 'let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer'

 

several stuff comes up as a list. click on 'HID-compliant device' and click 'next' (or simply double click it)

 

now it is done!! try fallout 3 and see for yourself.
