I have 2 saved games for my main character using various plug-ins. Whenever I try to load them, I get errors. One says my quicksave is not a valid ESS save file and won't let me load it and the other, my autosave, says it cannot find item "Go" on something and crashes. Any help would be hot.

As far as I know, not much you can do but restore an earlier savegame and hope it works. Only other thing to try is load/unload the plugins you had until you find a combination that works. Although that "can't find x" error doesn't sound right.... I've had problems with missing objects/etc and it gives the option to continue loading. If you do, your item will have problems, but the overall game should be fine.

I actually tried reloading plugins and that did not work and if I tell it to continue loading after the item error, it just crashes. Also, BOTH of my backup saves are also messed up. Looks like I will just have to completely restart.

Yeah, now you see the importance of backup saves, especially if you're using a lot of plugins. That's really the best way to avoid this kind of thing.
