Have the same problem. It's really annoying and it's no doubt an issue due to this being a console port. It's bad enough that this Creation Engine Skyrim is built on is subpar compared to just about every other engine for 2011 but to have UI bugs like this is just pathetic. I expected far more from Bethesda. I mean, I expected low res textures, limited draw distance, and even the game not being very optimized but as thing's stand it's just stupid. My fps is being limited when my cpu is only at 40%, gpu is at 50%, Vram has 400mb free, and my Ram has 6gb free. This engine is really bad, and will limit what people can do with mods. I frankly have trouble believing how bad it is. I suppose what's get me the most is that the biggest problem is the engine having such an enormous performance bottleneck. Low res texture, bad shadowing, etc could be modded out but with an engine so terrible in utilizing hardware there's no real room to mod those types of things in. In short, the problem here can't be fixed by modders. Bethesda [censored] on us with a console port and then [censored] on modders with an engine which will limit what they can mod. They've kept what could've been the best experience for both 2011 & 2012 on the PC to simply a well-crafted story with flawed combat, subpar animations...just, ffs Bethesda, I didn't expect you to make a serious effort on the PC version of every title or even some of the titles you produce, I just expected it for TES. Is it so much to ask to produce a title that will shine on the PC once every 5-6yrs?
