So been a while since I played Skyrim got the 1.6 patch the other day when I logged into steam and went to boot the game using Simple Borderless Window Mod and it would go to the splash screen then instantly CTD no error. I tried booting the normal exe in fullscreen same issue so I uninstalled deleted all the relevant Skyrim folders and cleaned the registry.

My question is does SBW work with 1.6 or is there a way to get the same effect of fullscreen windowed mode without the mod with 1.6? I get a bit of stutter and my performance using the mod is way better. I noticed on Nexus there is no 1.6 update and before I uninstall and reinstall all over just looking for some feedback. Anyone please help. I have no other addons currently nor plan to use them just want the SBW effect. Driver version is 12.1 should also note no CTD since the 1.3 patch.

I'd recommend doing thing in the order I list them:

1) Make sure that all drivers and Directx are up to date. I know that some ATI users needed to update their drivers to avoid graphical issues, but I'm not sure if this applies to CTDs

2) Did you delete your Skyrim and SkyrimPrefs inis and let skyrim generate new ones? Skyrim doesn't remove these between installs, and there could be a setting in the ini that Skyrim doesn't like. Don't change any settings after you do this and try running Skyrim.

3) You have no mods installed (Other than SBW)?
