Blue screen = not Skyrim but your computer, sure you may have other games that don't creation the right conditions but keep in mind a blue screen is the operating system meeting conditions it cannot compensate for like failing ram or a wayward driver. To resolve this you should start with a very important question: What is the error code on the blue screen? Its a 0x000000**, what are the last two digits? Find out and then use google to find out what the blue screen is coming from and fix that. Problem solved.

Where I can look at that code?, I have the dump file. Anyway google I see that many people are having many problems of this type with the version 1.3

If your getting blue screens of death it's your pc not skyrim.

If you're having blue textures and not using any mods, try verifying game integrity in steam, and also download and install the latest 12.1 amd driver.

Its among the info on the blue screen itself. Next time it happens take note of that code along with anything that looks like something.dll, that's the source of the problem.

my pc would happen if all or almost all games, however, this problem only happens in Skyrim ... I play games like Battlefield 3 without any problem.

Regardless, whether it only happens with notepad, of you're getting a blue screen of death, it is your pc. I would suggest reinstalling Direct X and use the latest amd 12.1 driver, to see if that helps.

Also verify game integrity in steam.

Blue screens are from hardware problems though, not software.

(It seems that there’s no pattern to these game errors, as no matter where the players were in its virtual world or what quests they wanted to pursue, the Skyrim always crashed to their desktop or, worse, resulted in a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) system error that forces users to restart their computer.)

Wanna know how I know the author hasn't got much gaming or technical experience? Because they think that a forum with a few dozen 'mah game dun broke' threads for a new game is news worthy.

REAL FACT HERE: if you play games at all, you do not allow the default BSOD "reboot" to persist. Doing the default thing is too DUMB to accept as a game playing person.

That said, a BSOD isn't a game's fault. Just isn't.

Got BSODs recently after updating my Nvidia drivers to the latest beta. BSODs might be related to a buggy driver

I have to add that before jumping the blue screen artifacts always occur, something very usual in this game and not just for me.

1) did you do a completely clean vid driver install, or did you just press "install" and let 'er rip?
2) how are your cpu and gpu temps?

» Tue May 29, 2012 5:30 am

1) Always clean driver installation using the Driver Sweeper before each installation, in this no problem.
2) CPU: 40 o MAX. GPU: 78 o MAX. All this tested with "Msi Afterburner".

Sounds like hardware problems. Please report the full text of the blue screen so we can help narrow down the component.

Artifacts? 99% of the time that's video card memory being pushed harder then its capable of handling and/or its starting to fail on you. Now historically the Gamebryo engine has this knack for exposing failing vidoe cards, I've met the same sort of thing back with Fallout 3 where the rest of the games at the time like Crysis etc were okay but specifically FO3 I had to down-clock my video card's vram because the engine just used it differently then everything else, until I did that yes I met artifacts and other random failures.

I had some blue screens a while back.
It was my Video Driver.

My computer guy came and sorted it..

Uninstalled all of what I had on there and installed the new one alone..

I can verify..Regardless when it happens.. Blue screens are your computer.. Not the game

Also what was the message on the blue screen? What were the numbers?

As another report available at post. But that effort is not that my PC is the problem, there are thousands of people with my problem, artifasct, crashes, blue screens ...
Sorry for my English.

You seem very defensive.. Can you simply provide the code that happens when you see the blue screen? It can be narrowed down that way..

Well then, since you're so certain that its not your PC but the game then surely you know how to patch the game to fix it too and shouldn't even bother posting in the forum since you won't take our advice despite coming here to apparently ask for it.
(Its your computer, its the video card and/or its driver and/or the clockrates you've got it set at, garaunteed)

Possibilities:
- virus
- bad RAM
- gpu clockrates
- cpu fan defective
- bad vid drivers
- failing PSU
- so many others

The game cannot be the root cause...at most, Skyrim is exposing an existing problem that other games simply aren't. To fix, you HAVE to look beyond the game.

Nanny:
In my case it was installing Video drivers over the top of each other , rather than uninstalling first.. Due to lack of knowledge..
I did not know I was supposed to uninstall first..

PC guy uninstalled 5 or 6 drivers that were old.. He also said it is always better to grab the drivers from Nvidia ..(or ATI or whatever you use) Rather than letting Windows update put them in.

Avermes feel as well. I'm a bit of anger not able to play this great title ... Now I find myself unable to generate a report and left me an blue screen relatively few, usually some type of leave or directly artifacst crashes the game.
Sorry for my English.

That is very understandable kilidani :

First do this:

http://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows7/ht/automatic-restart-windows-7.htm

This will stop windows from rebooting so fast, giving you time to write down the error.

Then when the blue screen happens, have a pen and paper nearby.
Write down every single thing that is on the blue screen and reboot..

Post what you wrote down here ..-s-
