Israphial Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) Hi. This is my first time playing Oblivion on my computer. I made this account so I could participate in the mumblings and bumblings( :D ) of this website and install mods.Well, I have a problem. I have a rather low end RAM and so I want to turn down the video settings in Oblivion. Well, I go into the settings/options, and turn down most everything that would slow me down. I go to hit "return" or exit, and the game crashes right away. It says that Oblivion has stopped working, and that windows will notify me if a solution is available, which isn't gonna happen. I have tried several different approaches to fixing this. Nothing works..I am running windows 7 starter, with 1GB of ram, and a nice video card. :( Help me please...Also, when I play the game itself, (GO ARGONIAN RACE) and am in the sewer with the emperor blabbing on, the chat time between characters is ridiculously long. Like, one guard will say something, waiting for an answer from the other one, and he wont speak for a total of 5 seconds average. I have played the Xbox version of this game and I know that this chat lagging should not be happening. I have messed with the audio options, which, by the way, do not crash when I exit them, and nothing changes this. Help on this would also be much appreciated. Thanks guys. :)-IsraphialEDIT: The game only crashes when i go into the VIDEO options. It wont crash in gameplay opt., or audio, etc. Edited January 1, 2012 by Israphial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rennn Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Try adjusting the video options like normal, then before you hit exit, hit the tilde key ~ to open the console command menu and then in the console type 'saveini' without the quotes. This won't stop the crash, but hopefully it'll make it so that the video options that you adjusted are savd so you won't have to enter the video menu again.

I really appreciate it! :D I will edit this post when I test it, which will be within 10 minutes. Again, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Israphial Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 (edited) The console command menu does not appear to be opening. I have to hit shift to use the ~ key, by the way. I am doing this in the main menu, though. I'll try doing it in-game, but IDK if it's gonna work..... Either way, thanks for taking the time to reply to me. Could you also please look into my other question? I would appreciate it.EDIT: So, it typed it in, and hit enter. All that happened is that it moved up a line and put my cursor below it. Does this mean that the console activated the command, or does that mean that I just moved down a line? If so, how do i enter a command if enter does not do it?

Nephenee13 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 If the console doesn't spit back an error, it accepted the command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
