Your saved games are stored in your "My documents\my games\Oblivion\Saves"-folder. Go there and copy the "Saves"-folder to a safe location. Then you can re-install the game and place your old "Saves"-folder back to use your characters and saves again. You might have to start a new game first for the folders to appear again, dont remember.

 

Just make sure you delete the Oblivion-folder after uninstall before you install it again, because any non-vanilla files (Most mods) wont be deleted with the rest of the game.

Come to think of it, I've actually had this problem myself once, at the exact same place. I dont think I used any mods at that time though. Have you patched the game? Might be a problem with the game itself, because I have a hard time coming up with something that would cause such glitches from a regular mod. I've also experienced a few crash-to-desktop around that area. So if it's still messing when using a fresh install and no mods, it's the game that screws around. Patch it and try some earlier saves.
