Rapid flickering and mouse lag

[alltheseducks]

When I start my game, from Mod Organizer or from the vanilla Steam launcher, the game flickers rapidly. I can see the other programs I have open behind it. It briefly loaded properly, but the smoke on the main menu stuttered and my mouse lagged. I don't know why this is happening and in looking for a solution, I can't find one that actually matches my situation. I've seen flickering mentioned around before, though, so I don't this is a unique issue.

 

I'm posting this in the general Skyrim tech support because it's happening regardless of my mods. If I shoukd post it in the mod troubleshooting forums, just tell me and I will.

 

My rig:

 

Processor: i5-6600K @ 3.5 ghz
RAM: 12 gb
OS: 64 bit windows 7
Graphics card: nvidia geforce gtx 980

 

 

My load order, if it's relevant:

I'm using OneTweak, SKSE, and ENBoost. ENBoost and SKSE are active for both Steam launch and MO launch, although the SKSE scripts and .ini are only loaded through MO. I'm not sure how to test without them, as I'm wary of removing lose files from my game folder if I'm not 100% certain where they're from.

 

Please help me. Thank you for your time.

It stopped when I removed enblocal.ini. I don't know why.
