Nuserame Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 As the title says, my game keeps dying on me, apparetelly whenever it reaches around 1.3gb of memory. This should not happen, I am running 64bit windows 7, with 4gb of RAM and 2gb of video memory. All included im only using 2.7gb of memory, as checked when the game froze up without closing immediately. Using a program to make skyrim 'large adress aware' didnt help. Tried running in administrator mode, as well as disabeling any mods that may be causing the crash instead, but no good. Been happening since I installed Dawnguard along with some other mods, though that might just be what keeps bloating the games memory usage. Not realy sure what to do about this other than reducing mods and graphics to poop, which im not realy willing to do. Help be much appreciated!

AbleGnome Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 No solution...but I am suffering the same thing. Thank you for posting. I have a similar setup, but 8 gig RAM. Skyrim ran like silk from day one for me....until Dawnguard. I'm at the point of wiping it all and reinstalling without Dawnguard and starting this whole game over again. I have no mods at all activated, but I understand that even if the files are still there is can be a problem. How do you test that. Also...WHY? Steam supports mods, so how they be causing any problems with a DLC they sold us? I really feel ripped off. I wonder if the XBox folks are having similar problems. Any help out there? Thanks.
