Ok, so this is my first time Modding Skyrim. I'm very nervous about posting in the forums because I'm probably making some dunce mistake, but here goes. I downloaded several mods and started a game with them and they ran perfectly! Game looked great, but obviously I wanted more. At the time, my load order was (if I remember correctly) Skyrim.esm Update.esm (I actually moved this up because the TES5Edit wouldn't load past Dragonborn) Dragonborn.esm HearthFires.esm Dawnguard.esm Unofficial Dawnguard Patch.esp Unofficial Dragonborn Patch.esp Unofficial Hearthfire Patch.esp Unofficial Skyrim Patch.esp ApachiiHair.esm RaceCompatibility.esm Falskaar.esm HighRestTexturePack01.esp HighResTexturePack02.esp HighRestTexturePack03.esp Hothtrooper44_Armor_Ecksstra.esp Hothtrooper4_armorCompilation.esp Weapons & Armor Fixes_Remade.esp WeaponsArmorFixes_ImmersiveWeapons_Patch.esp Clothing & Clutter Fixes.esp Smithing Perks Overhaul_Remade.esp SkyUI.esp Immersive Weapons.esp CharacterMakingExtender.esp EnhancedCharacterEdit.esp Complete Crafting Overhaul_Remade.esp Better Dynamic Snow.esp SMIM-Merged-All.esp WATER.esp WATER Plants.esp WATER DB WAVES.esp WATER DG.esp WATER FALSKAAR.esp It looked great! Ran great! Had no issues whatsoever. The problem occurred the MOMENT I downloaded JK's Skyrim. I didn't do the individual towns, just the whole thing. CTD as soon as I opened the game. I was very annoyed! So I uninstalled the mod, and tried again. I got to the logo, got the fog and music, then when I hit continue, CTD. But I didn't even have it on my computer anymore. I tried again, but this time selected "New File." This time, I got stuck on an infinite loop of fog and logo with no music. I tried uninstalling every single mod, nothing, the same errors occurred. I uninstalled Skyrim and re-installed, still didn't fix it. So I figured, I'll try a hard reset. I deleted every single Skyrim file from my computer, re-installed it, and Vanilla Skyrim booted right up! So I tried installing the mods I had before this issue occurred, back to the CTD and infinite loop. I installed BOSS to fix the load order, because maybe I was ruining it myself. BOSS did it's thing, told me the DLC needed to be cleaned. I downloaded TES5Edit, and it won't load past the Dragonborn DLC because it requires the "Update.esp" before Dragonborn. I manually changed the load order myself, however, in the menu for the start up of TES5Edit, this change doesn't even appear! What am I doing wrong? I don't even want anymore mods! I just want to play with what's on that list at that point, and I do not want to hard reset Skyrim and play it vanilla on this beautiful new machine I bought. Please pardon my inexperience, I'm also very unfamiliar with terms and have a hard time with English so I'm doing my absolute best to figure out what is going on. It's such a shame that JK's mod caused all this bad stuff to go down, because it looked beautiful. But at this point, it kind of broke my game!
