Skyrim crash after Bethesda logo

November 17th, 2013

I played Skyrim for sometime, then I downloaded a new driver for me graphical card (Radeon HD 5850). After that the game keeps crashing the moment the Skyrim main menu logo pops up.
I tried to change quality, install DirectX and reinstall the game couple of times (even in different hard drives)
Anyone knows how to fix this?

Answer #1
Revert back to the working driver?
Answer #2
If it is the same problem 95% of everyone else is having, it can be fixed by:
right clicking the speaker icon in the tray > playback devices > right click speakers > properties > advanced > 24bit, 48000hz.
Could also try renaming the skyrim.ini to skyrim1.ini and trying to start the game (my docs/my games/skyrim)
