As of 1.3 update I now have a new problem I didn't have before on exiting or entering an area it can become stuck on the transition loading screen the animated roulete wheel still spins and the back ground changes but the game will never finish loading, I have left it up to half an hour last night whilst I was busy and came back to find it still there so it isn't just a matter of waiting. First of all is the crashes, they are random in the time it takes for them to happen from when I first start to play but once it has crashed in a particlar place on re-starting the game often it will happen in exactly the same place again imediatley, the crash just causes the game to close but my pc is fine im just back to steam where I can re-start the game and it will re-start. I don't know if any body knows of any fixes so I just though I should ask in the forum, I've made a tech support query to bethesda too but no reply so far and patch 1.3 has not solved any thing and has introduced new problems. I notice that thses errors seem to be quite common even just taking a quick look in this forum and with a google search, but I have the same problems.
