CloudLevi Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 So... I have Game of the Year Edition for Oblivion. Fun little problem...I ALSO have the accursed Windows 7 Evaluation Copy (and cannot, by any means whatsoever, get rid of it prior to October 22 when the upgrade actually ships) Little problem I found out while installing Oblivion. Every time I try to install Shivering Isles, it CRASHES... instantly. No passing Go, no $200... as soon as I give the administrator permission to run the program, it pulls up a "Stopped responding; kill or find solution?" window and running the solution search hasn't really yielded results... So...is there some OTHER way to get Shivering Isles?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I doubt that Win 7 is your problem. I have Win7 x64 and it installed with no problems. The Win7 has been running Oblivion with SI much better that my older WinXP x32.First, check your drivers, 7 dosn't have built in drivers for everything. Tr installing Oblivion to a different location - where the UAC dosn't have control of what you try to do.Mine is installed to C:\games\Bethesda\Oblivion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloudLevi Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 I'm admin and have full power over every UAC activity. If I didn't, I'd wipe the disk and reinstall 7 quicker than you can SAY "7"... Anyway, I'm running it on a laptop and due to the very NATURE of my problem, installing the game under a new location is A.) impossible and B.) totally pointless, since it's the installer that's crashing. - I might be able to move it, but I'm pretty sure that would do nothing but give me a headache. Either way...the drivers bit tells me I'm screwed. It's a VAIO VGN-NR220E from Sony...I've been to the drivers page numerous times and my DVD drive is still acting up (I have to use a UltraISO to play...I have both discs on here and neither the physical disc nor the ISO for SI works due to the same problem) among other problems...

johnguydude Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I had this problem, and it turned out I just had to clean the Shivering Isles CD.
