gdillon Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Recently, I got a new hard drive and did a fresh install of Skyrim. I started a brand new game and have been getting these random freezes. The screen freezes, the music still plays, but nothing else responds. I have to ctrl+alt+delete to close the game and re-launch the game again. Sometimes it happens after an hour or more of playing, sometimes its after just a few minutes. I've scoured the web and found many people with this similar problem but as of yet I have been unable to find a solution!!!Here's a list of mods I'm using:PLUGINS:-Barenziahquestmarkers-UnreadBooksGlow-Lockpicksweetspot-Skyui-VendorsHaveMoreMoney-EnhancedLightingForRealisticLighting-DragonSoulsToPerksMODS:-A Quality World Map - With Roads-Spend Dragon Souls for Perks DSP 1_5-Swearing Mudcrabs-Vendors Have More Money with Options-Vendors Have Soul Gems I read somewhere that the map mod may cause freezes, disabled it, still got freezes. I've tried disabling a couple mods here and there, and still got freezes. I really don't think it's a mod issue. Someone please give me some sage-like advice and help me solve this, it's driving me nuts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdillon Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 I've seen this same problem posted in several different forums. I've seen people with no mods in common have the same freezing problem. However, between when I originally posted, and now, somehow, I stopped getting freezes. Played for 2ish hours two separate times without a freeze. Could just be luck? idk . I'll keep u posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concept83 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I am experiencing the same thing, and don't want to be overly negative, but thank GOD somebody else is experiencing this because I thought it was only me. I disabled every mod (mine included), verified cache, reinstalled, rolled back drivers, bought new ram, cleaned GPU, underclocked gpu, underclocked cpu, pretty much everything that I could do to fix this problem. I believe this is a Skyrim issue, because it doesn't happen when I play BF3, Withcher 2, DAO, or my other PC games. Ever since the 1.4.27 patch, this has been happening, mainly outside, and when using destruction magic spells. Even the new beta patch, 1.5, haven't fixed this for me. I have been slow on updates because I can't play long enough to test things. Skyrim, at the moment, is unplayable for me. Any solutions that's out there that could help me discover this issue, would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazekage1 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) @ OP What are your specs? What settings do you play on and do you use the hires texture pack? Also use BOSS to sort your load order. Disable ffdshow and make sure that your sound is set to 24bit 41000hz Edited March 16, 2012 by Kazekage1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliNoMore Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 it has been reported that A Quality World Map and enhanced blood textures are the cause behind all those freezes..delete them both if you have them and try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsewe Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) Hello I have had this same ANNOYING issue. I tried the windows 98 compatibility + set affinity (cores) without success.I tried the ENB patch without success.http://enbdev.com/patch_tesskyrim_antifreeze_v0096.htm Now i see this and I just tried to remove both HQ map and Blood textures, and it didnt freeze (at least for 3 minutes of little playtime testing).I'll test some more and tell you if it really helped after more playtime. *EDIT : I've also tried to simply load an older savefile without SoS Civ, Hq Map and Enhanced Blood Textures and it runs well!!
