Oblivion frequently CTD when in imperial city!

[h89zatzyi09]

Hi,

 

I presume it's something to do with my mods and its order in Wrye Bash. have an up-to-date PC, and the game is fully patched. I have been trouble-shooting and trying in vain to rectify this problem, but to no avail. The game is fairly stable until I reach the aforementioned city, when the game incessantly CTD with the dreaded message: "Oblivion has stopped working"

 

Please help; thanks in advance

What do you use for sorting your load order (i.e. LOOT or BOSS)?

 

- Edit - I recall reading a post some time back by Vorians regarding the load order for ClocksOfCyrodiil.esp vs the Better Cities ESPs (don't use either so I don't remember what was advised). If you disable the Clocks and the crashes stop you'll know where to start.

Forgive me for my belated reply; I use boss to arrange my mods. The game is works fairly well, until I reach the imperial city, then it has a propensity to crash; hence, I can only but conclude the main culprit is my better cities mods.
