Stuttering after ~30 mins - 1 hour

Recommended Posts

Hey, I recently re-installed Oblivion with nothing but Shivering Isles and the latest patch and I started to get strange stuttering problems that usually occur after 30 minutes to an hour of gameplay. I'm not currently running any 3rd party mods and the stuttering was not an issue before the reinstall.

 

The only thing that changed was that I installed the game on a new hard drive, which to my knowledge doesn't have any problems (other games like Company of Heroes and F.E.A.R run particularly well on the same hard disk).

 

Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Do you have the latest beta patch that was released for Shivering Isles? If not, try installing that and see if it fixes the problem. If you do have it, first of all it might be worth completely reinstalling (back-up your saves folder before doing this). By completely I mean uninstall and then go to C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks and delete the Oblivion folder as well. Then delete the folder in My Documents\My Games (that's also where the saves are). Reinstall the game without Shivering Isles and start a new game, and see if the stuttering occurs after an hour or so. If it doesn't, install Shivering Isles and try the same savegame. If the stuttering occurs then, then you've narrowed it down to something Shivering Isles is causing. If it's something caused by a fully patched Shivering Isles, then you may just have to wait until another patch comes out...
