Doeetfgt Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 (edited) [Edit : Resolved. Restarted computer and ran BOSS. Runs fullscreen without CTDs so far. But I would still love to know what caused it.] Whenever I try to run Skyrim, I get the 'failed to intialize renderer' error. Thing is, this only happens when I try running in fullscreen. Windowed mode experiences seemingly random CTDs, but otherwise very smooth.Fullscreen won't even start. The problem isn't a mod, and I updated my .net and directx10/11. Since windowed runs well, I figure the problem is elsewhere. But where?!My card is a Radeon 1600/1650 Series, and my game was running fine this morning (despite numerous random CTDs). Of course I can still play in windowed mode, but I'd like to know what causes this. (On a side note, when I ran the game with Steam this morning, the steam overlay and functions were bugged, gracing me with those gorgeous scrapbooked screenshots) Edited November 1, 2013 by Doeetfgt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
