I've had this game since August, but I can't seem to be able to take on three-man teams of Talon Mercs without dying at least once.
Any tips for newbs? |

Well, if you've at least started the main quest and reached GNR, you should be able to have a fat man. If you catch them coming at you early, don't hesitate to nuke their ass.
If you don't, you may try hiding and laying down mines if you have any. What are your highest skills?

I think I have Small guns, persuasion, and Melee as my highest skills.
I don't actually know where to go after finding James' Holotapes.
How do I access those? |

@Drake
Small guns and Melee? What weapons?
Holotapes? In Megaton?
Head for the stretch of city outside the Super Duper Mart. Swim across the canal of water. Look out, there may be raiders or super mutants. Don't want to run into super mutants at low levels. You will find a metro named "Farragut West Metro Station". Enter it. You should follow the tunnels until you find a metro named "Chevy Chase". As you exit, you will be ambushed by super mutants.
Luckily, a squad of BoS (Lyon's Pride, they have a bigger part in the story later) happens upon them and takes them out. They should lead you to GNR.

For Small Guns, I have a Chinese Rifle, a Combat Shotgun, another shotgun, a Laser Pistol, and a non-working Laser Rifle.
For Melee, I have a Chinese Officer's Sword, the Fisto, and my fists.
For Big Guns, I have a minigun and a Fat Man.
By the way, I don't know if level 6 would be a low level, since I only have the vanilla game.

@Drake
6 is a lower level, yes, but you may be able to fight off a few basic super mutants if you run into them.
A Chinese Assault Rifle and Combat Shotgun are some of the best guns in the game. Use them. Talon Company really don't have extraordinary weapons at low levels. Put stimpaks on hot keys, stock up on ammo before you think you may encounter them, and try again. I reached very good at a super low level, so I had to fight them at like level 3 with the basic 10mm pistol. lol
Also, for future reference. Laser Pistol/Rifle =Energy Weapons, Fisto/Fists = Unarmed

Oh, and let's go very basic here.
Don't be afraid to notch down the difficulty to easy, or even very easy. I don't suggest very easy, but Easy is good if you are new to RPGs. |

Yeah, don't hesitate to switch it to easy if you have too much trouble. You can easily put it back if you want.
