I fixed my Skyrim game from Freezing while Loading (PC)


Hahahaha, I finally fixed my PC version of Skyrim from Not Loading on the Continued Save. I just installed the Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE 1.7.1); and the SkyUI 4.1 User Interface Mod to Condense the User Interface. Then, I manually Loaded my Last Save file via the "Load" screen. I'm currently an Temporary Vampire member of the Dawnguard (Only for the Soul Cairn; as being Partially Soul Trapped would weaken you in the Soul Cairn) I shall return to being an Werewolf before returning to the Dawnguard by talking to Aela the Huntress of the Companions; So, I can finish the Silverhand Quests. I can easily Spawn Potions of Blood in the PC version of the Dawnguard DLC to maintain my "Hunger until I become an Werewolf Again. The Important Thing to Remember about the PC Console Mods for Skyrim is the Plugin/Master "Data File" load order.

The Skyrim Console Mod code for Spawning the "Potions of Blood"  is:  XX018EF3 , where the XX is the Load Order number of your Dawnguard DLC Master File (Dawnguard.esm);  In the following Console Mod code example, I'll show howto spawn 100 Potions, I'll be using the Load Order number of my "Dawnguard.esm" file which is: 02 (02; should also be the Default Load Order of the "Dawnguard.esm" file). I also Reccomend using the Beta Driver for your Graphics Card, if possible.

First, open the Skyrim Game Console by pressing the Tilde Key (~).
Second, Enter the code like so:
player.additem 02018EF3 100
Third, Hit the Enter (or Return) Key.

If the code was entered correctly; You'll get a Notice that the "Spawned" item was just added to your Inventory. It'll say something like: "Potion of Blood Added (100)".

My Current Skyrim Data File "Load Order"; this is the Default Load Order;
So, Dawnguard.esm is "02". (Skyrim.esm is "00", and Update.esm is "01")

Using the Nintendo Wii LAN Adapter on a PC

Recently My Ethernet LAN Network Card couldn't find the Drivers and wouldn't work; so, I'm using my genuine Official Nintendo Wii LAN Adapter as my PCs Ethernet Network card. And Like all PC Hardware under Microsoft Windows, Mac OSX, and even Linux Distributions; They require Hardware Device Drivers. When you Plug an USB Device in to Windows It'll register in the "Windows Device Manager". When Device Manager Runs it'll detect the LAN Adapter as "AX88772", It can't find the Driver Software so you'll have to download an Installer Manually; Don't worry I already found it on the Manufacturer's website, and will add a Link to the Web Site in this Post. And remember these drivers are only for Nintendo's LAN Adapter for the Wii; the Wii U LAN Adapter may use different Hardware. And other Vendors like Datel for example will use different Hardware/Drivers. A used Nintendo Wii LAN adapter isn't expensive; Gamestop sells them for around $12 USD. If you have the Datel LAN Adapter or a Adapter from another Vendor; you could try searching their Official Sites for the Hardware Device Drivers. The Nintendo LAN Adapter will actually have an Nintendo Logo on it. But, really look at what  Windows Device Manager has to say about the LAN Adapter and just Google what the OS reads the Adapter as, which is usually a Model Number.

Hardware Data:
Nintendo Wii LAN Adapter
Licensed By (Vendor): Nintendo of America
Manufacturer: ASIX Electronics Corporation
Model Number: AX88772
