Opening Oblivion Problem


Qixter

Recommended Posts

Everytime I try to launch Oblivion, this message pops up

 

"Failed to initialize renderer.

NiXAdapaterDesc::GetDeviceCaps() failed."

 

Wtf. I screwed it up with mods before, couldn't even uninstall it so I resorted to making a whole system recovery and now I get this. **** my life.

When you uninstall, unless you use the disk it leaves behind some entries in the Windows registry as well as your mods and saves and anything else in the folders. If you remove the folder, it still leaves the entries in the registry

 

Try creating a dummy file (file name only with nothing in it) named Oblivion.exe in the original folder - make the folder too if you deleted it. Be sure to put it in the same place as the original.

 

Then use my uninstall/reinstall procedure to uninstall completely - then reinstall.

 

Here is a Link to Bbens Complete Uninstall/Reinstall procedure:
