Heavy memory usage and instability. Fresh save too.

I removed everything that had to do with ENB from my Skyrim folder.

<Crashed while exiting an inn>

• CTD in a particular cell / location.
• CTD doing a particular action.

Spent about a half hour or so running (or flying) around Skyrim with the aforementioned console commands going, in order to try to break the save and the game as much as I could. Of course with a fresh save taken beforehand.

 

Even after repeatedly entering and exiting buildings with broken textures throughout, I couldn't get the game to crash. Wolves, weapons, guard armor sets, and trees were broken though... so I undoubtedly put a lot of stress on the game. Still couldn't trigger a crash though.

 

Memoryblocks log went up to 265 134.

You SHOULD be using ENBoost. Removing all that is NOT a valid solution.

[MethosTR]

I followed the STEP guide on ENB to the letter. Still got crashes on startup.

 

Removing it solved those crashes.

Update:

 

Crashes are back. Textures will also blank out or turn purple periodically, which I've noticed would herald an impending crash. Giving ENBoost another go.

Edit 2: Went ahead and installed Realvision ENB. Game successfully starts and I'm able to load my save. Apart from occasional stutters (doubt I can do anything much more about it), it seems to run fairly well.

 

Here is my ENBlocal.ini:

Setting the "EnableUnsafeMemoryHacks" parameter to true may have solved my crashing issues. Stuttering is also much reduced, with only the usual hard drive stutter when loading new cells or switching equipment.
