Sounds like someone maybe transmutated the silicon of their cpu into something else :winter2019neutralyul:

Please provide some more specs including CPU/GPU/Memory/OS etc so people can start trying to help w/ troubleshooting;

If Windows 10 or 11 > start with toggling "Hardware-assisted GPU Scheduling" and "Optimizations for Windowed Games" under Default Graphics Options,

Next to "Game Mode" On/Off (On sets game priority to High, which can trip up some DRMs)

Hope you still get to raise those alchemy stats and enjoy the game crash-free! Fingers crossed.

Obvious stuff first; make sure you're running the latest nvidia driver as well as bios for your mainboard to exclude stability issues on those ends,

Double-check you have a big enough swapfile (or manually set to 32gb for troubleshooting) and that there's enough free space on your OS drive.

Clear your shader cache folders, could be there's something needing to be rebuilt, and if there's any settings file saved in your 'documents\my games' folder, try checking/deleting those.

Fingers still crossed!

PS: After trying those first couple tips I gave before. Also, sometimes Razer/Steelseries and RGB-related tools running in the background can trip up some games, try shutting those down as well. Unplug any controllers just in case 🤞

It's not Oblivion without memory leaks

Does it matter if I have more than enough of memory?

Thing happens constantly when I craft potions for a bit.
Walking or doing anything else. Doesn't trigger it. I ran around for a bit after prison.

Plus. I looked up. It's engine related thing or whatever it is...
Similar posts online how people who play games on Unreal Engine get this thing. Crash with
EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION.

I'm guessing since it's release day there's a big chance one or multiple patches have popped up since you installed; could be an alchemy-related shader got corrupted or something, hence the tip to clear out that shader cache-folder in your %userprofile%

Oh yeah, last thing I forgot was a simple integrity check, sometimes it's just one tiny file that needs replacing and keeps tripping the game up.

(also lemme know if you've tried any of those other tips, otherwise I'd keep em around just in case)

Rolling back to older save before the crash could be my salvation.
Trying to trigger it again with alchemy. So far... It didnt crash.

Classic!

Why do people do this?

Top end CPU and lots of fast RAM... then put in a bottom tier GPU. It makes no sense.

When any noteworthy faster RTX GPU starts costing more than the rest of the rig combined it kinda starts making sense.

I ordered 50** GPU upgrade. I just had this one for 2 years.
I play a lot of skyrim with mods. And thats a few thousand of mods to process. Takes a little with such rig as mine.
