I'll never get this game to work...

Hi All,

Same problem for me - the game is installed but when I attempt to play it, I get the dreaded black box in the corner of my screen and then Windows informs me there is a problem and Oblivion must close.

I've already run defrag and scandisk; and msconfig to disable all...

Here's my system specs... can anyone identify my problem? I don't know squat about computers. Thank you!

Windows XP
Dell Dimension DIM 4600
Intell Pentium 4 CPU 2.66 GHz
512 MB of RAM
Direct X 9.0c
Intel 82865G Graphics Controller

Seems to be going around...

We're having trouble starting up as well.

When we start up Oblivion on my computer we get an error message.
I clicked on the blue "click here" note and it shows this error.

AppName: oblivion.exe AppVer: 1.2.0.416 ModName: oblivion.exe
ModVer: 1.2.0.416 Offset: 00098749

Ram and video meet the requirements.
Running XP
CD in player etc.

Help!

Thanks
Sir Bruce

Your integrated graphics are the problem. They will not allow you to run the game normally. Try using Oldblivion as suggested in post #21. It may work for you.

My oblivion for the most part plays fine on my laptop that i just bought. the thing is that when i try to get out of the sewers in the beginning of the the game the entire game just shuts down. anybody know wats up with that

i have the same problem it is not a problem with the computers stats it is that oblivion won't run with intel graphic cards.i know this because i called the tech support up for oblivion and they said that oblivion absolutely will not run with intel graphics cards no matter how good the card is so the problem is you need to get a different graphics card other then intel
