bben46 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 The specs listed to play are very weak. If anything is borderline it might not work. Om many laptops, the video ram is taken out of the main ram and is not separate, so you may have less available ram than you think. The audio also uses some of the main ram. Then, what else is running? any other programs running in background may be using some resource that Oblivion needs. And, if you are running Vista. you may need to disable UAC. A feature that MS uses to protect you from doing what you want to on the computer. You also may need to set yourself as an administrator to get it to work.
