There's no reason your computer should be running Skyrim with the graphic settings set to minimum.
Raise your graphics settings to the point where you feel satisfied with the framerate and appearance.
Open Skyrim.ini found in Skyrim's root directory.
Change these variables:
bEnableLogging=0
bEnableTrace=0
bLoadDebugInformation=0
to
bEnableLogging=1
bEnableTrace=1
bLoadDebugInformation=1
After two or three crashes, post the results from the logs found in the logs folder, which is accessed from Skyrim's root directory.
Make sure your sound card drivers are up to date, then, access the Sound Devices menu from the Control Panel. In the playback tab, right click on your default audio device and select Properties, select the Advanced tab on the new screen and select 24 bit, 44100Hz (Studio Quality) from the drop down menu. (Likely not the cause of your problem but doing this may prevent other problems that could arise in the future.)

this guide, even though it's hosted on Nvidia's website the information pertains to anyone who owns the game, lots of great tips for getting some extra performance and fixing crashes. As the reduction in performance stopped or reduced the crashes, there may be something in the .ini files that could be the cause or solution to your problems, this guide touches on the variables found in Skyrim's .ini files.
It's always a good idea to do some general maintenance on your computer as well, this way if you can't fix the crashes you can at least speed up boot and load times. There's also a variable in SkyrimPrefs.ini titled fAutosaveEveryXMins, this controls the amount of time between each auto-save, it's defaulted to 15 minutes but you can shorten this so you don't have to worry about remembering to save so often.
Here's a few more fixes for anything in general, maybe one will solve your issue:
