» Sat Oct 13, 2012 11:22 am I'm getting near-constant CTDs with such frequency the game is nearly unplayable. Each CTD is happens instantly with no error messages. It used to work fine with some random CTDs, but never to this extreme before. I think an update might've broken the game, or maybe my graphics card is farting? I'm just not sure what to do... At first I thought I might need more RAM, so I upgraded from 2gb to 4gb RAM, but it still crashes.
I'm a bit computer illiterate so I'm not completely sure how to fix it.
It happens regardless of whether or not I have any mods installed and active. I've tried re-installing, removing all mods (completely deleting them from my game folders), etc. but the CTDs still happen.
My specs are below. (I only included what I believed what was relevant but if I am missing something, let me know.)
