Unresolvable Lag After Bleak Falls Barrow; Mod Load Order Is

Post » Sat Jun 09, 2012 8:47 pm

Hey.

So I reinstalled Skyrim with the latest STEP and some mods. The game was running smoothly on my system all the way up until I left Bleak Falls Barrow. After this my FPS went from 35+ to 5-8. Older saves experienced the lag, as did any new games. I can understand and accept my system not being able to handle it, but it was running fine and flawlessly for hours and all of a sudden BAM! Lag. My saves are normal sizes and as far as I can tell I'm not using any mods that are conflicting. I tried uninstalling EVERYTHING and resuming from a previous working backup of my STEP installation (barebones STEP, no mods) and freshly configured .inis but the problem was still there. If anyone would be kind enough to look over my info to see if you can spot any issues I'd be quite thankful. :)

My computer hardware SHOULDN'T be an issue, but you never know so I'll list the simple version of what I'm running:
  • CPU: Intel i7 975 Extreme @ 33.3GHz
  • Memory: 12GB DDR3 1333MHz
  • Primary GPU: EVGA Nvidia GTX 570 (301.42 Drivers)
  • PhysX GPU: EVGA Nvidia GTX 285 (301.42 Drivers)
Here's my mod load order:
