FCOM - Video settings keep resetting in-game

[snowdevil86]

I've recently done a fresh install of Oblivion/SI with FCOM, and I'm having a problem. No matter what I do, my video settings reset in-game about 5-10 seconds after entering the game world (not my resolution, but everything else - Specular Dist, Grass Dist, etc.). They're fine in the main menu and in the tutorial dungeon, but as soon as I enter Tamriel my settings go bonkers. I can even open up the menu, reset the settings to high quality, and close it again, only to find that they've reset back to defaults 2 seconds later. I have no idea what could be causing this. This has happened to me before in the past, but usually I just delete the 'My Documents/My Games/Oblivion' folder, and then reset my options and they stick. This is also not the first time I've installed FCOM - far from it. I've gotten it to work perfectly many times, but for some reason no matter what I do I can't fix these settings. I've even uninstalled it and done a second fresh install with FCOM, and the problem persists. The odd thing is that the video settings actually stick before I load FCOM. After FCOM is installed, they go berserk. I should also mention that they seem to choose random values when they reset - sometimes everything is maxed out except Grass Dist. & Specular Dist., but usually when I correct these two, all the other sliders go back to defaults or even lower. I've tried using the 'saveini' command, and that did nothing. I've gone into my NVIDIA settings and looked around, and saw nothing unusual. I honestly just don't know what the hell to do at this point. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks ahead for your time.
