This is happening to me. I am really afraid of ruining my hardware.

I've had one blue screen, the only one I've had on this PC, during Skyrim. But that's it so far.

probably a memory leak, not the bs memory leak forum goers made up... but a real legit memory leak which would cause a blue screen.

never happened to me, but Ive heard its doing the same to ps3s. I think these google translate random pages should be take off the site. If there were thousands having these issues the steam forums would explode. Its probably some douchebag with a faulty pc, skyrim works the cpu hard with all its draw calls and if your temps arent good blue screen it is.

There is a thread over at the nexus forums with hundreds of players with the exact same problem: http://www.thenexusforums.c...

And the GOTY goes to Uncharted 3 !

Maybe on PS3. Just because it has problems, doesn't mean skyrim isn't amazing. U3 is great, but Skyrim is better. Just my opinion.

I have yet to play Skyrim longer than an hour without being booted back to Windows or worse...forcing a reset.

I'm not worried about ruining hardware. I just wanna kill some f***in dragons without saving every 2 minutes.

they can't get a 14 year old game to run smoothly?

jjb1981209d ago

That's ridiculous, lol. I'm waiting for the guy that says its too cpu-intensive for the Switch 2. This game is old af and has been released like 17 times.
