Oblivion Bugs

[Darth Lime]

As the title may show, I am having numerous issues with Bethesda's latest release, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Main issue is crashing randomly. Not only has it made the game a pest to play, its not all that fun that it keeps crashing.

I read somewhere that there was an unofficial patch that fixed around 300 different bugs. Maybe its a bug, maybe it isn't.

A friend of mine lent it to me and I have since then put a no-cd patch on it. That might be the cause.

Any ideas?

As always, make sure your drivers are up to date. The no cd fix may be the cause, I use the disc and I have no problems well a friend of mine uses the fix and has the same problems as you.

The nocd patch is probably shitty programming, which would cause issues. Oblivion has no copy protection.

Frankly, at $20 (new) you can afford to get it and keep the damn DVD in the drive while you play. I got maybe halfway through the main quest and 50 hours of actual gameplay before I got burned out because there's just SO MUCH you can do. You can't tell me that's not worth twenty bucks.
