Skyrim SE Crashes when saving, during loading screens, and when trying to wait/sleep

Hello, I recently started modding Skyrim SE and this is the third time I start over simply because I wanted to follow a modding guide. I managed to install and successfully play skyrim with over 100 mods. But then I added some dawnguard, sound, and lightning mods and my game started crashing. It first started when I tried to enter dayspring canyon. Once the loading screen started, or was supposed to start, the screen went black and then skyrim closed and my screen showed my desktop. I loaded skyrim again and tried to save the game when I was closer to dayspring canyon and again the game closed. I tried loading other saves and the game would crash when I tried saving. I've tried the player.kill thing and still no success. I also tried using the Resaver tool in Fallrim tools to remove the unattached instances and save as a new save file. I also tried disabling the mods that I had recently installed when the problem started. I still cant save the game, enter areas that require a loading screen, or even wait/sleep.

My mod list is attached (the enabled mods are the ones I was able to play with. The disabled ones are the ones that seem to have messed up my game)


Please don't assume I know what I am doing. I am very new to modding and this is quite new to me

Try this, it's stupid, but it DOES work a lot of the time.

If you have a game that crashes whenever you try and save

1. Load the Savegame, DO NOT DO ANYTHING.

2. Wait 30 seconds to a minute
3. Load the savegame AGAIN (Yes, just load the same game again without doing anything else)

4. Try and save the game in a different slot.

This DOES work for some people, nobody knows why, maybe something that didn't get loaded on the first load, gets loaded on the 2nd load.

Anyway, give it a try, it only costs a small amount of your time.

Never add large mods mid playthrough. It's a golden rule of modding Bethesda games. Play the game for a few hours after you feel you are done and that's it for that playthrough. Small mods like armor and weapons won't hurt, but it's most likely that reason. Start a new game and see if it works. I have over 750 mods installed and I'm stable, but I didn't start my playthrough until I was sure I had all the mods I wanted.
