So I have been playing Skyrim for a few months now and since installing I have had the following issue:
When I load a game (whether new or continuing) the sound loads, but the video does not, all I get is a black screen. The way around this has been to alt+tab out of the game a few times and eventually the graphics will load and the game works fine. I still get good FPS once everything has loaded, but I'm not sure why I have to go through this every time. I have even tried leaving the game running for 5 or 10 minutes before alt+tab to see if it takes a while to load, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. I can lower the graphics and it loads just fine, but I would prefer to have the graphics and a higher level.
I am running Windows 7
Intel i5 2400
8 GB RAM
Nvidia GTX 460
Any help would be appreciated and I will attempt to answer questions as best I can.
Thanks.
