Random 4 second freeze fixed, but not Complete Freeze. Anyone find a s

At first I dealt with the random 4 second freeze outdoors. These mods helped incase it's happening to you

Thanks for the fix boris and kullashaker

 

But every so often I get a complete freeze, where I either have to restart my computer, or alt+tab and close the program. I dont get a black or blue screen. the game just freezes. I have yet to find any word on a fix for this mostly because searches will always point to the more frequent 4 second freeze. Sometimes I can play for hours without seeing the freeze, and sometimes it happens minutes after I load up a game. If anyone has any info, it would be awesome.

 

I also updated my nvidia card to the driver thats specifically meant to run skyrim... I'm running windows xp.

 

Thanks, moto.

Have you tried the /3gb switch?

 

Skyboost (r3) with iCCC (fxaa injector with ENB patch 096) has helped me. With your 9600gt, you might have to lower your AA to like 2x and force AF (better performance). Also, if you use the latest drivers (beta 290.53) Ambient Occlusion is ON by default, with Nvidia Inspector you can disable the AO for a bit more performance. Likely the freezes from my expereince are from CPU binding and AA while your cpu is trying to prebuffer some frames.
