CTD before Character Creation

[Deleted6279032User]

I ran BOSS and TES5EDIT but I can't figure out why my game keeps CTD'ing before I can even make it to the character creation.

Start with reinstalling your skin textures. For some reason with mine I can edit my character during the game but it crashes when starting new and reinstalling them fixes it for some reason. Also, you may want to use the Ordinator program to optimize the textures. A large number of hair texture files can also cause that and this really helps as I have over 200 installed.

First of all you need to clean all of the mods that BOSS has highlighted. Secondly, you need to either position your unrecognised mods manually or put them to the BOSS team either via your BOSS log or the BOSS thread found here: http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1444621-relz-boss-for-skyrim/ complete with esp name and the mod page link or number (at the end of the URL). This will take time though as they are very busy and recently have either been eaten by real life or are tending to the backlog of thousands of reports from the logs.
