Skyrim doesn't start

Myriddyn · 11-16-2011, 04:07 AM

Hi all.... My digital copy of Skyrim doesn't want to start neither with Windows 7 SP1 nor Xp SP3 (on the same pc).
With the first nothing happen after clicking on "Play" button in the start menu of the game. With the second one the game starts (but always in window mode!) but after few seconds it crashes. Why?
Please help me.

For me it always crashed as soon as the menu loaded. I fixed it by configuring my sound card for 44100Hz. Prety lazy from Bethesda to not see that this made to game unbootable. I think that they tested the game on the Xbox360. Check to see if the game archive are corrupted. Click right mouse button on the game than check game archives inside Steam.

Yes, yes... yesterday I was in a hurry.
My system:
Microstar MS-7514
Intel 2 Quad Q6600 2.41 Mhz
nVidia GeForce GTX 460
Audigy 4
Ram 8,00Gb
Some HDs and BR/DVD writers
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit SP1 / Windows XP Home Premium SP3

Yes, like administrator. I have some other games on steam and all are ok.

Incredible.... I used a program (Large Adress Aware) to "use" all ram (8Gb) and TESV.EXE run! Not from Steam link but from x:/Steam/SteamApss/Common/Syrim. From the same directory SkyrimLauncher.exe not run!
I don't know why!
