So i have been searching forums forever now and no suggestions fix my problem. Whenever i start the skyrim launcher after installing the Natural Lighting and Atmospherics ENB preset my launcher will freeze, i went through all of the installation instructions carefully and it still deosnt work , i cannot click on any of the menu options on the launcher, and no error code comes up besides "skyrim launcher has stopped working". I tried to reinstall directX, that didnt fix it. I tried to use the injector version of ENB and my launcher works, but when i hit play the game doesn't start. If you need anymore info i can post it, so just ask.

NLA ENB ( http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/50 ... w%3D&pUp=1 )

Video tutorial i watched ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTef79rH1fM )

PC Specs:
Amd fx-6300
2 Amd r9 280x crossfire
16gbs of RAM

The only known reason when it freezes - injector version installed instead of wrapper (and it means enbseries.dll renamed to d3d9.dll). For any other cases, it must be crapware (including antiviruses and various protections from OS).

Is there a way to detect what program is causing the problem?

By terminating processes in task manager

I have tried ending so many processes in my task manager and it still will not work, i am seriously confused. If I posted a screenshot of my running processes would you be able to know which one is causing the issue?

Maybe. And install DirectX Runtime Standalone.

I have already tried downloading runtime, my operating system is windows 8.1 (8.1 has lots of bugs), could it be the cause of the issue?

Here are all the programs running in the background of my computer: http://imgur.com/a/kVy5g

What's that Gyazo screen uploader? Anyway, easiest is to simply take no chances and temporarily force kill all processes that are not absolutely required.

It's not Windows 8.1, I used to use it with absolutely no issues with Skyrim + ENB.

Gyazo is just a screenshot app, i highly doubt it would cause the issue but ill try turning it off.

That's a good idea. No matter how insignificant the app seems anything that uses hooks (most likely Gyazo does) is a potential source of conflict.
