Skyrim Crashes about every 2 Hours...

After a while of playing skyrim, the game seems to crash. I'm not sure if its a problem with my computer or something else. I don't have a great computer so..._

You can always exit Skyrim every hour, get up strecth a little and then go back to playing. Do you use mods? You can try validating your files.

normally I take a break between 30-45 minutes and as of late do not suffer any CTDs. I am very happy. others have a CTD every couple of minutes. sometimes it is because they have chosen visual pleasure in place of stability. you on the other hand can go 2 hours without a CTD, enjoy it.

read the above link and relearn what your mother probably told you about how close and how long you should be staring at a screen.

Sorry....but this wasn't exactly what I was looking for. Don't think that you've never played an immersive video game for more than a few hours at a time....

Xbox plays without a hitch but the PC version does have some quirks. Occasionally it will play for hours without CTD and other times in 10 minutes. I've gotten to the point where I save the game over the last save everytime something important happens or I've been traveling on foot for a long distance.

The most common crash I have is the program suddenly minimizes. I have to close it from the task bar. If I try and reload it there is nothing but a black screen.

Once in a while it will crash and close itself.

Don't know if it's the fault of the Steam version or the program itself or Win10.
I don't rely on the autosave. Half the time it doesn't save anything.
All I can do is save, save.
