Can't run Oblivion, crashes on startup.
I've tried everything I can think of, installing, reinstalling, compatibility modes, patches.. Whatever, nothing works. All my drivers are up-to-date and I'm running Build 7100. My computer is more than capable of running Oblivion, it just doesn't want to.
Help please? |

x64? fill out your system spec's, that usually helps the progress of troubleshooting.
cant really help if we dont know what your using :P also relevant... anti-virus/spy-ware protection. no-cd patch. all that good stuff. Oblivion ran fine for me on 7100 x86. need a little more info, cheers ![]() |

i read that there is problems with oblivion and your processor. try setting the affinity to Cpu0 and Cpu1, that will disable 2 cores, and maybe, hopefully it might work. im not to sure, but i believe this is set in the task manager, by right clicking on the process name.
try that and let me know. |

I couldn't really do that seeing as Oblivion crashes as soon as I launch it, I wouldn't even get a chance to get to the task manager

hmm.... sorry, minor overlook...
here are links to a few programs that will set it before start up (supposedly) StartAffinity <- d/l version 1.3.1 http://usuarios.lycos.es/coreaffinity/ <- straight forward, looks easy to use. http://www.koma-code.de/index.php?op...d=88&Itemid=93 <- another one. best of luck! |

Thats rather odd for that game to have such a problem with such a popular processor.
