StanPH Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Hi everyone, I'm having a little trouble running oblivion.Over the last few days Oblivion started to crash out of nowhere. There would be a random colored screen and the only way out was to reset my computer.It got quite annoying so I thought to look into it. I updated my graphic drivers to their latest version, but now it will not run at all! The Bethesda Softworks logo will appear but then the game immediately crashes to desktop. I hope anyone can help me with this problem :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyYou Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 try renaming your oblivion.ini in the my games\oblivion folder and see if the game will start. sounds like your video card is overheating...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 As HeyYou said, it sounds like a video card problem - usually overheating.Check to be sure any fans on the video card are working and the air channels are clear of dust. Then roll back your video card drivers and test. Usual symptom of an overheating video card is a problem that starts after a certain time and is repeatable. - if the card works for ten minutes, then starts the problem, then you reboot and restart the game - go in an entirely different direction, and the same problem happens again at around ten minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
