getting Steamed

I run Oblivion on steam and except for two nagging problems that i had when I used XP Pro have carried over to steam. every once in awhile I get a blank screen with the info still on the bottom and you can move the character. If in a cave the whole screen is brown and lasts just a second or two or flash and be gone.

I have a Asus M3N72-D Mobo and the old style Phenom 2 quad core CPU. I run in SLI using 2 9800 GTX+ video cards. I have tried disabling SLI and it still does it. It can happen if I am standing still like out side watching an NPC and the screen goes to a light blue color for a secomd.

I am using windows 7 Pro service pack 1 I think.

The problem seems to occur more often in caves, ruins and such rather than outside. I have just had the OS installed and have the latest drivers for everything.

 

I was thinking that I could increase the frame buffer in the video cards but do not know how to do that ion win 7 Pro. I used to run a program called tweaper that would help me do this but it will not install in win 7 Prop as i get a error message that says it is not a 32 bit program. any help out there? I don't mind but it is a hassle when it happens during combat.

 

So if anyone has an idea let me know I do run with all video settings at max with HDR. I was thinking that a window mode might help but do not know how to set that up in Win 7 Pro (omly had it for 5 days) so if you have some ideas let me know please
