Windows 10 CTD and Lockup Periodically - Not a Nube

[RadoGamer]

First I know that a lot of people are having issues with Oldrim and Win10 and I know there are a lot of fixes for the issues. I've been all over the internet and found lots of very good suggestions and have applied the ones that made the most sense to me. I even tried BethINI to no avail.

 

Second I'm a mod creator and have been playing Skyrim since it came out, and use the CK often, The issue that I'm having recently started and I have over 124 mods which I know aren't really a lot and I don't use any graphic enhancing mods and I haven't installed any knew ones lately. The only new ones are follower mods I'm working on, those are the first ones I removed to see if any thing with those mods could be creating the issue. Nope that wasn't it.

 

Third the system I'm using is the latest one I built the specs are as follows

 

Intel i7-7700k 4.2ghz

Giga-Byte Z270-Gaming K3

AMD Radeon R7 370 Series 4gig DDR5

16 GB Ram

I rolled back the latest GPU driver update no fix

I turned off the Crimson profile for Skyrim no fix

Crimson settings are as follows and have been this way for a while:

 

Anti-Aliasing Mode - use applications settings

Surface Format Optimization - On

Frame Rate Target Control - Disabled

Anti-Aliasing Method - Multisampling

Wait for Vertical Refresh - Off unless...

Morphological Filtering - On

OpenGL Tripling Buffering - On

Anisotropic Filtering Mode - Use App Settings

Shader Cache - AMD Optimized

Texture Filtering Quality - Standard

Tesselation Mode - AMD Optimized

 

 

With these specs I figure there shouldn't be any problems but I was wondering if perhaps there is an issue with too much ram.

 

At first the game would just CTD this would be after a long period of game play. During the issue I had a win 10 crash problem and narrowed it down to MSI Afterburner, and was able to verify that fact, since I quit using it the Win 10 crashes have stopped. I was wondering if the fan controls MSI had applied being removed may be the issue but the game is locking up and stuttering in place now and it happens during transitions and map travel transitions and camera movement only moments in to the game. I've been looking for another app that I can replace Afterburner with but I haven't found anything that sounds as good.

 

I know my system is a hot one but it seems odd that a simple CTD problem has escalated to a more serious one as it has, I've checked the logs and find nothing that jumps out at me to give any hints. Also the problem seem to be only with Skyrim, Skyrim SE plays very well with no issues on top of all this as well as other demanding games I have. My personal feeling is it's a Win10 problem (I hate Microsoft) but with all this information I was hoping someone could see something I haven't.

 

Thanks
