b l i t z k r i e g Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 I used to play Oblivion daily a few months ago until I stopped because I got bored with it. And now I really want to start playing it again, but my cd is not recognized by the only computer capable of playing it. Once I insert the cd, the machine will whir and click like it is loading but nothing happens. I check My Computer to see if the disk shows up or not, and it doesn't.When I open up oblivion.exe it just tells me to insert the disk, but it's already inside and I'm stumped.I tried putting the disk into another computer and it recognized it, but the machine that recognizes it doesn't ave a strong enough video card. What can I do? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRocketTM Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 If you do have an original game DVD, and like I see you do - go and get yourself a no-DVD-crack. (I almost forgot that I'm using one too, because I got tired of changing disks again and again and carrying everything around with me - I only do have my little notebook!) Just google for it and make sure that you:1. Get one for the game version you have installed. (1.1.5.11 or whatever) Otherwise it won't install.2. Have made a backup of your Oblivion.exe just to be sure! At least this would help you to be able to play again. What you could try else is cleaning up your disc with a soft cloth and less water on it. (if it has scratches this might not help ^^) but in some photo shops where they sell picture CD's or something they do have machines that repair your CD's - just ask there. (You can buy a machine like that too, only a few days before I've seen one for 19,99 Euro. ^^) Try whatever you like, I hope it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sativarg Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 OK is the drive you put the disk in a DVD drive or a CD Compact Disc drive? Oblivion comes on a DVD and needs a DVD drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charades Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Don't worry DVD drives are only 25 - 30 dollars. I had the same problem with Stalker, 2142, and a bunch of other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRocketTM Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 Woah, they're expensive for you. ;)In Germany they're a bit more cheap. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
