K, install the x86 Visual C++ 2010 Runtimes and report back - http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=5555 .

THALES100, is this only specific to Matutin's problem, or could it be a possibility for the rest of us who are trying to use HAYDENS fix but get immediate Crash to Desktop WITHOUT error messages?

No help. Have a newer version already installed (Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable).

Goddamiit! I've found the solution. My Cloud AntiVir judged the .exe as a threat and inhibited the execution of the file. Who would have thought that after such a cryptic error message?

THX FOR THE HELP ANYWAY! I know that the 20 bucks I donated were a good investment!

@Matutin: Thas nice. :onethumb

No, you may try to install x86 C++ Runtimes, and also check any AV software too, btw Skyrim is immediately crashing only when you run HaYDeN's fix ?

sorry, i am new to the video card scene... that's why I trying to figure out the GPU vs VRAM issue...

so now you make it almost sounds like VRAM would help with FPS in the case of multi-monitors (which make sense)... but how about the GPU power... wouldn't a 570 be able to much push pixels much more efficient even with only 1GB? or the 570 1GB will have the same problem as a 560ti 1GB?

is it a known problem for the map markers to be all messed up for HaYDeN's solution? Thanks.

I have tried the anti-virus avenue already, even went as far as uninstalling it altogether (I'm using AVG Free), and yes it is ONLY crashing after I inject the patch.

here's what it states after I inject it, then run the game:
+ Searching for RUNNING Skyrim Process...
+ Skyrim process found...
+ Process opened successfully!
# Image: c:program files (x86)steamsteamappscommonskyrimTESV.exe.4gb
# Version: 1.1.21.0
+ Version Support Detected!
+ Executing ASM injection...
+ Allocating additional memory to process...
+ Generating Function 1 (Wrote 64 Bytes)...
+ Generating Function 2 (Wrote 10 Bytes)...
+ Patching Mouse Positioning (Wrote 6 Bytes)...
+ Patching Mouse Handler (Wrote 5 Bytes)...
+ Patching Mouse Sensitivity (Wrote 17 Bytes)...
+ Patching Overscaling (Wrote 4 Bytes)...
+ Patching completed, Leave running until you exit Skyrim.
+ Skyrim thread exited... we're done!

It all looks good, but like I said, screen goes black as if it's loading then immediately crashes to desktop as if there was no problem, and when I run the game with the same method without using HAYDENS Fix, it works fine (I've been using Helifaxs fix along with non-updated skyrim). Thoughts?

EDIT: all above mentioned things are still true, but I tried to install "the x86 Visual C++ 2010 Runtimes", and upon installation I got this error.

That is realy odd, as MS would "know what's newest". Language would not matter but x64/x32 and XP or Win7 would. ..or corupt system files.

Something else could have modified your runtime libraries.

Note; x64 systems have both x64 and x86(32b) runtimes.

So verfiy the basics, OS, language and x86/x64.
If you did get the right version then run ScanDisk on yer OS drive.

One other possibility if yer recovering from a virus/trojan smash up then something small is still twisted in the OS. As an example I did not have user:"Everyone" (with full access) in my "temp" folder. So nothing would instal. (don't bother looking for Everyone as that user is not actualy viewable)

User/User/Admin mix up maybe. More than one user?

VRAM and GPU power should be linked, imagine a GTX 580 with 512mb of VRAM, its a waste of GPU power, as much as a GTX 560 with 3Gb of VRAM is a waste of VRAM.
Im running 3 x GTX 480, thats a lot of GPU power, and the 1.5Gb of VRAM wont limit Skyrim on ultra settings, in 3D Surround.

is it a known problem for the map markers to be all messed up for HaYDeN's solution? Thanks.

Im also getting broken map markers occasionally (Skyrim v1.3 + HaYDeN's fix v0.9), ill try to contact HaYDeN tonight.

Are you running W7 ? Like ChainMale said, its weird since having a newer version shouldnt be considered a "blocking issue" by an online installer that should be the newest version. Maybe you could try to uninstall C++ 2010 x86 from your PC and then install back using the provided microsoft link ? You could also update game to v1.3 and try HaYDeN's fix v0.9 (make a full backup of skyrim folder v1.0 if you want).

um.. The CheckDisk scan first. Then uninstall.

I'm just worried the uninstall would make a bigger mess with a messed up file system. It's still a bit of a stretch. Something quirky going on.
