Crashes on Alduin's Bane

Post » Sun Oct 21, 2012 12:31 pm

So I know there is a common issue in Alduin's Bane where the cutscene after you first read the elder scroll won't proceed until you talk to that other dragon first. This is not my issue. At around the same point in the cutscenethree times in a row my computer has crashed. All three crashes have looked different. The first crash my PC auto restarted. The second, screen just went black and never came back. Had to manually reset. Third time, the last second of audio looped over and over and over and all video stopped.

Here's the [censored] thing...if I could just SKIP this scene i'd be fine with it. I've played through this damn thing before on my 360 and just kinda wanted to run through this game again on my PC. I did PREVIOUSLY have a heating issue with Skyrim where I was getting pretty consistent crashing due to GPU reset. Upon turning up the fans all crashes stopped. When these crashes started I upped my fans from 60% to 100% and it's still crashing in the same damn spot. Any work around or help with this? I can play the game for ten hours non stop, I just can't play the game for more than 2 minutes into this stupid cutscene!
