you people that got it
how u get it to play with out crashing?

DOMS

I did nothing special. I think they have a patch now.

Hell, I even overclocked my video card and edited the INI file.

Dale Mabry

Who wouldn't?

If sense were common, everyone would have it.

DOMS

Did you also download the better textures? All that combined makes the game look so much better.

myCATpowerlifts

I love all of the mods out there. Makes it much more interesting.

What is sad, is that on my save file which had 62 hours, It glitched when trying to close oblivion gates, so I had to delete that save.

fufu

You poor soul.

fufu's 1337 Journal

Your diet will set you free.

Witmaster

Everywhere I go and read that this is a common issue with the game. Crashing at random points. Crashing has made this a most frustrating game for me.

I'm installing the new patch now but I'm not holding my breath.

NEVER write a check with your mouth that you can't cash with your ASS!!

I can run faster mad than you can scared

I assume you've installed the newest drivers? Are you overclocking? Do you have any problems with other games?

DOMS

Also, have you installed the newest version of DirectX?

Witmaster

Yes, No, No, and NO

I was running Dx 9.0c

Updating now. Thanks

I was a game addict at an early age, and I see how it nearly destroyed my life. My cure for the problem was to quit playing any game of any kind cold turkey.
I have been a healthy happy individual ever since.
Video games are a plague infesting America.

JordanMang

Only if you are pathetic and can't control yourself, dickweed.

myCATpowerlifts

I completely agree.
It's just like any other form of entertainment...
People with less control shouldn't play them, if you can't put it down.
Just like a habbit or anything else...

KelJu

How many Americans can control themselves?
One habit is not better than another.
Judging by your weight, you can't stop stuffing your face asshole, so keep your little cocksucker closed about my videogame habit.
When you put down the Twinkie, I will listen to what you have to say about self control.

im running a 9600 radeon
latest drivers

directx latest

im unsure whats wrong
it crashes every 10 minutes.

help

Witmaster

Well don't feel bad... I updated my Direct X, Patched the game, verified my Vid Card drivers to be the most current.

Still crashing.

If you go to the Oblivion Forums you'll find this problem is pretty common. I've no idea if Bethesda is addresing the issues and/or when they anticipate a fix.

Have you updated the drivers for your video chipset?

Witmaster

Yea... It's strange. The game seems to run fine in any instance however, once I go through a door and the "loading" screen appears, it sometimes becomes unstable and crashes to desktop. Very wierd I tell you.

DOMS

Have you defragmented your hard drive?
Have you turned off all unnecessary programs/services?

I've run it on two installations of Windows XP Pro with no problems, but I run a tight operating system.

Also, do you play other graphically intensive video games or is this the only one?

You could also try the Omega drivers. These are custom modified drivers written by a third party (they're free). They often provide better performance than the drivers that nVidia puts out
