BriarRose55 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 hi all, been away for a while, my old computer finally up and died on me, and when i was finally able to get a new one, well, it isn't as powerful as the other. the guy at the store told my husband i'd never be able to play skyrim on this one, but he was really pushing the expensive gaming computers so i have a sneaking suspicion he just wanted a bigger commission lol. i can get skyrim to load, i have steam installed and skse and all my mods etc on mod organizer just like before. but my character is running in slow motion every time i load! is there a way to fix this? should i get the memory blocks log mod or something similar? i installed everything on medium resolution, like it recommended. the graphics card on this new computer is an ATI Radeon HD 4200. please if anyone has any suggestions to speed up my game, please help thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BriarRose55 Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 (edited) what about the original version? i am eligible for the new skyrim but i installed the original instead thinking it would work better on my computer and i believe i meet system requirements, my specs are : Windows 7 Professional OS Processor: AMD Phenom II X2 B59 Processor 3.40ghz 16gb ram memory 64 bit system graphics: ATI Radeon HD 4200 storage: 171 gb is there anything here that would keep me from playing? like i said, it loads and the resolution is beautiful, it just takes forever to load and when it does my character runs as if in slow motion. is there something in the ini file that i could tweak?

Erik005 Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 The guy at the store was right, you will not be able to play any version of skyrim at decent fps. Your computer is designed for office and internet not gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
