CTD before main menu even loads

Recommended Posts

I am crashing to desktop before the main menu even loads, I need help with this because I just got the game and now I can't even start it up, let alone play it. Do not give me the sound settings fix, that won't work for me I'm on XP, also do not tell me to switch to windows 7, I do not have it on any computer.

 

I need a fix that will work with Windows XP, I've already tried the "run in compatability mode for Windows 95" fix with no success, I need a fix that will actually work. Please can someone help me.

Mod list? Might be a conflict going on.

 

I have a mod that says it requires script dragon, and I do have it installed but not sure if it's working, the mod list is really long. the sexy city texture mods(whiterun riften ect.), beautiful whiterun, beautiful riften, a few kahjit mods, I don't think it's a mod thing, the game starts up but it's crashing before the menu

Exactly. A common cause of CTD's in menus is the mod conflicts.

 

Do you have SKSE (Skyrim script Extender) installed?

 

I have it but not the launcher(tried the ini for making it work with steam and steam replaced it with the normal one)

If any mod says it REQUIRES either SKSE or Script Dragon, and it is not active when you start the game - You will get a crash - That is kind of what requires means. :whistling:

 

Both SKSE and Script Dragon must be started before the game is started every time if they are required.

 

I'm not sure about Script Dragon, but the SKSE launcher starts SKSE, then automatically starts the game - and it DOES work with Steam.

 

Be sure you have the latest version of SKSE & Script Dragon for your Steam version number - or it will still crash.

I tried running without any mods I know need scriptdragon and I still get the crash.

 

I have found out that I have mods that are conflicting, I will attempt to find the mods that are doing such , I can get to the main menu now that I disabled a few mods.
