Make the evil CTDs go away!

Thanks ben, that actually has the plugin I was using linked. The only thing is my crashes are not from the default oblivion level system, but from something going wrong when the game tries to use the script from ROM which replaces the default leveling system. Nobody else has reported the ctd on level up (I've had it happen at least 20 times in a row now, never getting to a new level without the obse plugin). I'm only using a few mods that are not supposed to conflict, so I'm guessing it has something to do with windows 7 but I don't know. I read somewhere that OBMM works better if you install oblivion outside of the program files directory, so I tried documents... this caused OBMM to say "can't locate bsa" or something like that and now I can't uninstall or reinstall oblivion even after deleting all the files. :(

By removing the game folders without using the uninstall on the disk, It leaves behind some registry entries that tell the game that it is still installed when you try to reinstall. This procedure covers how to get around that.

Here is a link to my complete uninstall/reinstall procedure located in the articles section of the Nexus

It allows you to preserve any saves and mods, or remove them completely - your choice.

And also takes care of any stray registry entries that got left behind.

Cool, thanks and kudos (even though you have a million already lol), that did the trick. I'm still getting the ctd whenever I try to level up, but it looks like it is just a bug with ROM. It's a little strange that only I and one other person have the issue though, especially since I'm only using ROM now so there is nothing around for it to be incompatible with except for the things ROM requires to run (OOO, OBSE v0018, OBMM). Hopefully when we find out what is similar between me and the other person with the crashes we can solve the issue.
