Deleted4404112User Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Well this has never happened before. I tried to load up a save and the fps was so bad I had to downgrade to low quality and edit my video card's 3d settings to the lowest so that Skyrim would run efficient enough to play. I ran high quality flawlessly until this randomly started happening. I have a 2010 Alienware M15x with an nvidia geforce gtx 260 and I have directx 10. I don't think any of my mods are causing it because I uninstalled a couple of big mods that I had and it didn't make any sort of difference and the only solution I have left is to uninstall and install Skyrim again but I fear that it wouldn't make a difference either. Another thing I noticed is that while I'm running around in the wilderness there is certain spots that are generating strange distorted sounds. If anyone else is having similar issues and would like to discuss this go right ahead. If anyone has an idea on how to fix this please share it. I sent a report to Bethesda support but they haven't emailed me back yet. Edited July 27, 2012 by DJGIRISH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erinaea Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 I may be having the same issue. Out of the blue my FPS is completely abysmal, seemingly at random. It's making me want to smack my face on my keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumizone Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Exactly the same issue here too. Usually occurs after moving into a new area, suddenly FPS goes from a smooth 60 to 10-20 fps. I have found (strange though it sounds) that if you Alt-Tab out of the game (save first! incase you crash) and then Alt-Tab back in, the fps is back to 60... What the heck? But 10 mins later you go from one area to the next, and its back. Alt-tabbing in and out all the time is a real immersion breaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try that and see what happens because I used to be able to run on high settings and now I can't for whatever reason and I'm going insane. My FPS is at 45-55 right now on low quality.
