You can now beta test Skyrim patches

Yea, Skyrim is still a little buggy.  But you may be to able fix your problems with the game without even having to wait for the newest patch.  For PC users, Bethesda is offering you the chance to download the 1.4 patch as a beta.  And if you decide you don’t like it, its easy to switch back. Just simply  go to “the drop down, select NONE – Opt out of all beta programs. Let Steam restart, and Skyrim will automatically update itself back to the latest released version.”

To get the beta version of the patch follow these directions.

  1. Log into Steam
  2. Click on Steam in the upper menu
  3. Select Settings
  4. Under the Account tab, go to the Beta Participation section and select Change.
  5. A drop down menu will appear. Select Skyrim Beta.
  6. Select OK.
  7. Steam will now restart. After Steam restarts, Skyrim will be updated to the Beta version currently available.

And this should go without saying, but be sure to back up your save files, etc before trying the above. You have been warned.
