Anti-Aliasing isn't the problem. HDR lighting is.

 

To use Oblivion's built-in screenshot utility, turn HDR off and use "Bloom" instead. For whatever reason, HDR prevents you from taking screenshots... at least, that's the way it works for me and everyone else that I know.

 

If you want to take screenshots with HDR lighting turned on, then your best bet would be to buy yourself a copy of FRAPS and use that for all of your screenshots and game videos. It takes better quaility pics, anyway... so it's worth it IMO.

What does the line in oblivion_ini which is written as bEnableScreenshots=0 mean?

It disables screenshots. Change the "0" to a "1" to enable screenshots.

But, even if enabled, it won't work with certain other settings.
