So, my roommate went out and purchased Skyrim. I was sick all weekend which kept me from my multitudinous responsibilities, so I played for two days straight like an O.G. nerd. I have been specializing in Enchanting as my crafting skill, and I've noticed one annoying little problem. I can't seem to recharge any items. This wouldn't bother me, as I can make new ones, but I recently became Arch-Mage of the college of Whitehold, a title which comes full with accommodations, clothes, and a fancy Staff of Magnus. I can't seem to recharge the staff at all, which, as you may be aware by now, svcks.

Is anyone else having this issue? I go to the Items screen. It tells me to hold down R2 to charge items. I have an inventory FULL of Soul Gems, but nothing happens. I just pull the trigger, notice my weapons not getting charged, and die a little on the inside.

If someone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it.

Your soul gems actually contain souls right?

Also, out of curiosity, how big is your save file and how many hours have you played total?

you can't charge if your soul stones are empty !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Charge them or find new ones.................
