Please Help! Oblivion installation problems!

[maguiremart]

I've not been modding oblivion for very long, but I realised that some mods gave my oblivion some serious performance drops. I mean, by the end of it my framerate dropped whenever I looked at an npc. So i decided to uninstall oblivion and then reinstall it, adding only the specific mods i wanted. However, when I tried to launch it, the data files thing said that there were still other mods installed, even when there is no trace of them in the oblivion main file. What's worse is that oblivion.esm isnt first in the load order. So I was wondering if there was a way to completely reinstall oblivion making sure that there isnt any trace of the other mods you installed previously? Also, I can't edit my textures, meshes and sounds files, as well as a few others.

first delete your complete data folder, and everything else related to oblivion (if you have obmm and so on unistall), then unistall oblivion through the disk and install it again... I hope this helps (but what you should have done is simply uninstalling your mods)

For the not being able to edit your folders, are you running vista? If so, install oblivion outside your program files

This may be easier than reinstalling
