sound stutter could mean sound card driver problem not the game problem. I couldn't get SH5 working at all for 2 weeks this was after going back to Windows 7 64bit from windows 8. Now its working fine with only a small mod list enabled.
Before i went to win 8 and running win7 it didn't matter how large the mod list was the game ran without any ctd. This time round with a fresh install of win7 updated to sp1, video drivers etc SH5 will crash with any mods longer than what im using
Try this mod list and if it works then ctd could be from any other mods you left out, i could probably add one or two more but once its too big i'll get CTD everytime now. So i stick to the small mods trying to set it up to make the game playable for my liking.
