CTD on Skyrim Out of Nowhere? C++ Error

Post » Thu Nov 08, 2012 8:18 am

Hi everyone how are you doing? I'm doing not so well.

I have been playing Skyrim since the day it came out and have never had this problem.

Now I can barely play the game for 10 mins without it freezing with a "Microsoft C++ Error". I can't even read the error because it freezes along with the game so I have to Alt+Ctrl+Delete to close them...

I'm really sad...can anyone help me?

Have you changed anything at all with regards to software, hardware, etc since it started happening? Install any updates or anything at all?

It generally happens randomly but, in your case, it sounds like a bad software update somewhere or something.

I also got this, very sudden out of the blue after ~60 hours gameplay (also have a thread posted here). It has been pointed out that it might be to do with Dawnguard and not your PC. The crashing came for me after a certain stage in the Dawnguard MQ. Are you playing the DLC at the moment?
