Steam version crashes at launcher


Recommended Posts

I recently re-installed Oblivion on Steam. Despite that it worked perfectly a few months ago, Oblivion now does not work.

 

After hitting Play in the Steam Library, the normal steam loading pop-up pops up, and the Launcher music plays, but I immediately get the error message:

 

"Oblivion Launcher has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience..."

 

The launcher never actually shows up before the error message appears.

 

I tried:

- Re-installing the game again

- Re-installing steam (after deleting the Steam folder after un-installation)

- Updating my video card drivers

- Re-installing DX9.0C

- Launching from the Oblivion folder

- Removing the "My Games/Oblivion" folder from My Documents before launching

 

I never installed any mods, either. I run Windows XP 32

Try right clicking oblivion in the steam windows and click properties.

Then go to the 'Local Files' Tab and then do 'View Integrity of Game Files...'.

If somethings wrong, You'll usually get something about a file not being acquired.
