Chorrol.com _ Oblivion cheats and hints _ Game keeps crashing

Posted by: Duezala Jul 28 2006, 07:11 AM

My computer meets all the recommended requirements with a Nvidia 7800 card. Everything was fine until I got to the Chey guild recommendation and then it started crashing every 2 minutes. I downloaded the patch but it doesn't help. Can anyone tell me what the problem could be? GRRRRRR~!

What exactly does it do when it crashes? ie: parti-coloured screen? error messages? Computer simply freezes and goes to a blank screen? Computer shuts off? If you can give more detailed info, maybe one of the boards techno-kids can help.

I've got a radion 1900XTX graphics card, and I STILL have weird things happening in the game graphics-wise. Doors are slow to open, fountains don't flow correctly, spell effects are in slow motion, and those handy-dany corpse-mashers are slower than slugs. Haven't figured out why yet.

Oops, sorry it took me so long to post. I didn't see your reponse. When I purchased my videocard Nvidia 7800 the dealer had installed an 81.98 driver which they said was the newest one. It turns out that the newest driver had just come out a couple months later and this apparently has made all the difference. It is 91.31 and seems to have solved my crashing problems. So far, I've only had 2 error messages but only when I exit the game and only, after very prolonged periods of play time (i.e. excess of 8 hours). I love this game

your cpu can over heat or you could have a faulty motherboard
