Well without knowing your specs or load order if you have one there isn't a lot we can do from that text.

Some suggestions

 

Go to C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\Fallout4\Fallout4prefs.ini

modify the following values:

 

bTopMostWindow=1

bMaximizeWindow=1

bBorderless=1

bFull Screen=1

iSize H=1080

iSize W=1920

 

or launch the game in window mode thru launcher.

Yeah, thanks guys and i just tried all that, fixed to vailation error but still the game does not play. I'm using windows 7, it worked fine months ago without all those updates. Any way to remove them? and do i need to be loggd into steam or else the game will crash? i'm logged in the desktop but not online.

You can downgrade the game version. (I cannot link you to it).

have you tried deleting those ini ?? try deleting them and fallout recreate them from scrach and setup your system with fallout 4 options. and see if that makes a difference.

The way that site/download looks, looks suspicious. Might be totally ok but who knows.

 

I had the 0xc0000005 error coming up before for another application though. It was resolved by using CCleaner from pirform (free one works fine) to clean the registry. Normally I do not recommend registry cleaning unless you know what you're doing because things can go wrong. The page I found details on was best-fix-the-application-was-unable-to-start-correctly-0xc0000005 down on Method #2. The newer versions of CCleaner look slightly different but it should be pretty straight forward what to choose.
