SKYRIM WON'T SATRT

it woulden't start...i mean... it would, but after the bethesda symbol came on, it shut the game down, with a tiny box off the the upper left, like when you get from starting it...
I did add some new patches...

First off I need to know if you are using any mods.

check your load order- look in the Data files--dawnguard.esm, hearthfires.esm, dargonborn.esm and then comes unoffical skyrim patch.esp, unoffical dawnguard patch.esp, unoffical hearthfires patch.esp, unoffical dragonborn patch.esp..... esm stands for Elder Scrolls Master-files and esp is elder scrolls patch files.... All esm's must be loaded first

I'm getting "Launcher Failed To Load". Before you scream "ERASE MODS", I have no mods installed. This will be the 4th time today that I will have performed a clean vanilla install. I have deleted all backup files (just in case one was corrupt), and there are no "straggler" mod files in my folder. I have even deleted Steam off of my PC, and then reloaded it.

when you want to play Skyrim what icon do you click on

have you set up a desktop shortcut for steam.

I click the icon steam set up on the desktop and I have also tried to go straight in out of steam. Neither allows me to get into skyrim without the "Launcher Failed To Load" window.

As of the 5th clean install it is now working, still have no idea what was causing it, so no help for anyone else who may have the problem in the future.

The same thing happened to me in Oblivion a few times. To fix it, I had to delete my Oblivion INI file (the game then generated a new one) and it would work just fine. I don't know if that applies to Skyrim as well.
