mitchelw Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hello Al, I have used mods from this forum for already a long time. I've olso made some mods myself. But now with my new pc they won't work anymore. A friend told me that vista is bad for the mods and that they won't run. But here is the problem, i dont have windows Vista. I have windows 7 Proffesional. Why won't my mods work? Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFact Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Where did you install the game? If you installed Oblivion at default directory(like C:\Program Files\....), it is recommended to uninstall the game, then install the game at different drive or directory.

bben46 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Win7 uses almost the same UAC that Vista does. The same fix applies. For Vista and Win7 related problems such as UAC, Check here: http://www.tesnexus.com/articles/article.php?id=262. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bben46 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I think you are confusing directories with drives. You have only one drive and that is C:However, the C: drive contains many directories - also called folders. (Microsoft changed the name when they went from XP to Vista, but they are still the same thing)And each of those folders can contain sub folders.
