Skyrim crashing (screen freeze, white screen)

Post » Sun Jan 26, 2014 3:43 am

Hello,

I'm sure there are probably alot of these topics over the internet, but I have no idea which one is outdated and whatnot.

So hereby I'm starting my own.

When Skyrim was released a few years back I could play it with no problems at all. I quit for a few years and recently started playing again. Before playing I installed NMM and installed a few mods (immersive armor, immersive weapons, CBBE, a popular hair mod). Then I started playing but had a CTD every 1-5 minutes. It was really unplayable. I've disabled every mod in NMM, uninstalled NMM itself and reinstalled skyrim. Now I have a crash where the screen freezes for a few seconds and then turns white. After which I need task manager to close Skyrim. I can at least play for longer than 5 minutes now, but I'd like to be able to play without crashes and with mods enabled.
Also I've noticed CBBE still works even after uninstalling everything.

My laptop specs (if needed):

GPU: AMD Radeon 6770m (yeah.. I'm one of those unfortunate people who have to deal with this thing..)

CPU: i7 2670QM

RAM: 8 GB

This is kinda stupid of me..
Just uninstalled it again and looked for she Skyrim folder. I always thought steam would just delete that complete folder but It was still there with some mods content.

I've deleted the complete map and am downloading Skyrim again. I'll post again after testing.

I've deleted every single mod file there was on my laptop, installed the vanilla game and still had a white screen crash. Does anyone know what's causing it?

You started a new game? Deleted and refresh the .ini files? You want to delete the 2 .ini files where your save game folder is. SKyrim.ini and Skyrim.prefs.ini. Start the launcher and the game will remake them.
