One of the things you'll need is the DarnIfied UI mod. For some reason, finding the D/L link is really hard. Very surprising considering this UI mod is one of the more popular ones.
Ive uploaded it to my server here:

(right click, Save As - DO NOT LEFT CLICK)
There is no readme, but part of the install you must change the fonts section in your fallout3.ini file.
Assuming windows XP, go to:
C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR USER ID\My Documents\My Games\Fallout3
Open the fallout.ini file.
In there should be a fonts section.
change this:

The semicolon is just remarking out the old font incase you want to uninstall. The rest of installing the UI is very straight forward if you use Fallout Mod Manager.
