so - to understand you right:
- the problem is 3 days old on 26th of december?
- it has or it has nothing to do with your search for the BoS? (i do think, nothing ...)

and now some questions:
- were there any updates on your pc? (drivers, OS, DirectX, patch, ...)
- did you play the day before, too?

If the new patch had been installed before it can't have nothing to do with it ...
I randomly do have a similar problem: My video-card-driver is crashing and is to be restored by Win7 (same on WinVista). I get a message of it in my systray (not in full-screen-mode) and i can trace it in the eventvwr.exe. I don't think, that would happen on WinXP ...

So, with no changes in software it has to be a hardware-issue: ScanDisk, memcheck, heat (it's cold outside - did you turn on your heating with your PC right in front?), ... :)

well it cant be that the game worked great before i hit the 48 hour mark on the saved game. i even started a new player and it is working perfectly. note that i started the new player and nothing is going on but when i go to my old one it happens. thing is i thought it might be the game that is makeing it happen as nothing is going wrong with my other player.
