    Do you have TEs5Edit? I use that to find conflicts or missing masters. Google how to use it

    I agree with Tae-Rai. I am no mod expert so you might also want to check out the mod section.

    I would clean those dirty edits up. I had to make my game run smooth, otherwise I was having all kinds of issues. You need to download TEs5Edit. You can google it. It is not hard to use just have to read about it. Once I cleaned up my dirty edits, I had no more problems.

    Another thing you can try is taking all your mods out and putting them back in one at a time to see where your problem lies.

    It can indeed be quite frustrating(CTD's, game freezes) and what not.  This is a good site that will help you understand what needs to be done in TES5Edit to clean those mods out:

    I wouldn't recommend checking your mods that way, it can cause some bad problems with scrips... And it doesn't always reveal or fix the problem

    Error: SPIKE.esm is not present or is not active. Skyrim will CTD when loading if using this file without it.

    Maybe look in to that? If I recall correctly, that plugin is part of Guard Dialogue Overhaul.

    You rather need SPIKE.esm or its caused by something else. What version is Immersive Armors and Guard Dialogue Overhaul, as both of them use to require SPIKE.esm.

    Thank you so much all! I will Definitely clean my dirty edits! however, I got the dialogue overhaul for guards and still no Spike, so Im quite confused!

    Check the "Immersive" mods for Spike.esm. Guard Dialogue Overhaul should use it too, according to this thread: Skyrim Technical Support - Spike.ESM.

    You may also want to check out this mod: Requiem - Guard Dialogue Overhaul Patch

    Speaking of which, in the comment section of that mod there is some interesting information. Apparently "the new GDO version only removed the provided SPIKE.esm because Immersive Armors doesn't use that anymore.". Maybe installing the latest versions of the mods might help?

    The game is closed from the menu, not when you load the game, correct?

    How many mods are you using? Are a lot of them big filesizes? There is a point where you have so many that you exceed the amount of data the game is allowed to use, and it will CTD no matter how many patches or clean edits you have.

    Not many. Used to have almost 300. Now I'm trying to run maybe 5-7 large ones and 20-30 smaller

    For every mod besides the Requiem ones on this list, I have used them all together and they have worked fine (this is without BOSS - I do the sorting manually for fun, and I never used a Bashed Patch).

    Try removing requiem and see if it works, and if it does, you will know what the problem is.

    I agree with Saryn, try to remove the Requiem and see if it works. Also, the problem may be due to another mod, not listed on this list. CTD from menu is from missing master files, there is something like that going on. Also, BOSS sometimes sorts the mods wrong, puts the plugin above the master file and it crashes

    Did you rub TES5Edit like I suggested? That will tell you instantly what mod is causing the CTD.

    Also don't clean Guard Dialogue Overhaul, the new Immersive Armors (v7) and GDO no longer require SPIKE.esm. Like Tae said getting TESV Edit will tell you what is causing you to crash.
