He he I love how you say those specs are sooo bad .. I play Skyrim .. just ... lol ... It plays ok .. I modified the ini files so no shadows or grass etc .. unless steam decides to auto return it to basics :( but anyway my stats are:

 

Intel SU4100 (1.3 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)

Intel GMA 4500MHD ... I am assuming this is the GPU :) with all of 64 MB Graphics RAM .. ha ha ha ... Tried to change it in BIOS but it is set ... In the specs printed on a label on the laptop it says up to 1695 MB DVMT ... Dynamic RAM allocation to GPU ???? wow what a waste ..

4GB DDR3 RAM

Windows & 64 bit ... lol Windoze sometimes :)

 

So why complain?? At least I can play the game .. movement can suck .. lol .. Lucky to get 10FPS ... he he ... I can search and move .. just fight .. lol ..

 

What I would like is the option to turn off the shiny surfaces and bloom so that the GPU isnt so tested out by them ... AT least I dont get CTD like in Oblivion .. lol . .. funny that one .. ctd Oblivion and not with Skyrim .. hahaha

 

Of course low res graphics would be nice so that I could run it better ... sometimes I have to wait .. I have to play with TIM command so I dont die so easy .. he he ok I dont die at all ..

 

Anyway when you have my specs then complain .. he he he ... I understand your complaints .. A fix to drop the graphics to a low res would be nice, losing the "shine from bloom" I dont care what the game looks like I just want to play better and fairer without having to use TGM or TIM modes... Apart from this .. great game :)

Here is a good trick that I used when my PC was just to slow for Skyrim ...

 

Edit the SkyrimPrefs.ini

Use Ctrl+F and search for the word Shadow. Edit each entree to be a 0 or 0.0000 depending on if it's a float or not.

If the entree also has the word resolution in it set that to 512

 

Same with Skyrim.ini

with the exception of fSunShadowUpdateTime=0.5

 

This will make your FPS jump up a lot and improve performance drastically.

 

Yes, make a back up before you start.
