Can't find a pattern of CTD in Skyrim LE

My game randomly crashes after a while without no noticeable reason or event in game. I do use Vortex and LOOT. Here's how it happens.

This is a completely new install and new save. The game first crashed while walking. Later, I tried to load an Autosave and it crashed while loading. Then I proceeded to test a couple of things


- I loaded the save, didn't move or did anything, then closed the game (Alt+F4) and started it again. I managed to do this process 10 times. No CTD.
- I loaded the save, moved and fought some NPCs in Riverwood, almost always starting Sexlab Defeat. After approximately 5 minutes of gameplay I then closed the game (Alt+F4). I could never repeat this process more than 3 times. Generally the 3rd or 4th time I loaded the game, it crashed during Loading. 
- Tried all the above deactivating ENB (Shift+12 in game menu)
- Physically cleaned the dust of my rig because it was indeed a bit too hot. Temperatures are totally normal as expected (also fixed a stuck FAN)
- Installed Crash Fixes v12 and tweaked the inis as the modder suggests
- Installed Load Game CTD Fix
- Installed the required SKSE Pre-Loader
- Cleaned all the DLCs with QuickClean and repeated the process, still random CTD
- Cleaned other dirty mods with QuickClean... Random CTD.

- Did the 2 above following LOOT instructions.

 

I then started playing again. It took 30 minutes (I took note) to another CTD. I was literally just walking near Whiterun and it crashed near the Meadery. No action, no visible event, nothing noticeable. I was approaching the door (with a NPC nearby). I simply can't make any logic of what's causing those CTDs

 

- Crash Fixes Log registered only the Loading CTD with the FootIK error, but that was before I installed the Load Game CTD Fix. The next CTD was while walking and CrashFixesPluginLog registered nothing.

- SKSE Minidump file when read by Windows DebugDiag tells me that 

DebugDiag was not able to locate debug symbols for TESV.exe, so the information below may be incomplete

 

I don't know what should I do next fo find the cause of those CTDs. As I have somewaht 100+ mods installed and the CTDs are happening after some "random" gametime, it's really hard to disable some mods and test it. But if that's what it takes, so be it. If someone could point me to a mistake in the load order or to a mod that's probably causing it. If I can at least narrow down the possible culprits...

I'm running Skyrim on High settings in Windows 10 X64. Full HD. Keyboard and mouse.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

EDIT: Was ALSO crashing with CBBE morph sliders after Crash Fixes Mod, fixed it setting AlignHeapAllocate=1 in CrashFixPlugin.ini. The Game still has random CTDs. As son as I left the Prison (Alternate Start) it crashed.

 

EDIT2: Installed ENBoost 6.0 fix. Changed ExpandSystemMemoryX64=false. It's Been 3h of gameplay without CTD so far. ENB Graphics effects were turned off and there's some physics and sound bugs (which I found it's probably related to Skyrim not dealing with Higher FPS and VSync related. I'll try to fix later). I did not find the ideal solution yet. I want to play with ENB effects. Meanwhile I'll try to change things tomorrow. I'm almost sure it's a memory related problem.

? I can't see PerkusMaximus.esp in your load order.

You are aware that you are supposed to run the PM Patcher (and create a PM.esp) before you play the game?

Or you switch those esps ( and some more) OFF and play without PM

That is not needed.

 

Doublecheck that you have your ENB set up corrrectly, specifically that your enblocal.ini is configured correctly for your machine.

Doublecheck that you have Crash Fixes set up correctly.

 

Install Bethini (This will set your Skyrim.ini and SkyrimPrefs.ini files)
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/69787

 

The above plus the SKSE Plugin Preloader and Load Game CTD Fix will get you a stable game if set up and configured correctly.

 

If you are using Vortex and LOOT make sure you turn off Vortex's autosort or it will take precedence over your LOOT.

 

Don't clean esps willy-nilly.

That was simply dumb of my part. PerMa was one of my last installs and I just skiped this part. Done. Fixed. Starting a new save now. Thanks.

Alright.

Re-checked the Crash Fixes page and setup files accordingly.

Did the same with enblocal.ini. I'm following the wiki.step-project guide.

 

I'll test the changes that I made in ENB and others. Then I'll proceed to install Bethini if I have CTDs or not.

 

I'll report back later. Thanks. 

 

Also, If theres other guides for that (both Crash Fixes or enblocal guide) I'm all ears.

did you verify integrity of game files in steam after doing new install?

 

if not, and you do that, think you might have to reclean masters file dlc's. 

I sincerely did not. I played Skyrim Vanilla for about 1 and half hour as I usually do when installing mods due to previous games being screwed up.

 

 

EDIT: 2 hours of gameplay. no CTD. Seems that tweaking the enblocal.ini using the ENBoost 6.0 as a base did the trick. It was indeed a memory related problem (99,9% sure). I still haven't had the time to visit parts where I know I faced CTDs ingame. PerMa Patch was applied. Did not install Bethini yet.

 

EDIT 2: About another 2 hours of gameplay. The game CTD when manually loading a save after a death. Nothing else. Even though I have Load Save CTD Fixes, I think it is just an isolated case of load CTD
