Oblivion crashing

Hawky89 · 22 Feb 2008 at 18:04

I have oblivion on the following system:

E6550 @ 2.33GHz
3GB Geil 667MHz ram
HD3870XT
OCZ stealthxstream 600w psu
Hitachi 320gb hdd
Vista home premium 32 bit

and sometimes when i play oblivion it just decides to crash, it doesn't do it all the time and i don't know why it does, its perfectly fine when im playing it, max settings and smooth frame rate, any ideas what might be causing it?

what do you mean by mod?

nope, no mods, my card is running around 35 degrees, havn't got any patches but its a very recent addition that i have, where can i get a patch then?

i already have the knights of the nine and shivering isles expansion pack, so none of those patches will help me. it tends to just say 'oblivion has stopped working' and then i have to close it through task manager. it happens probably every third time i play it and normally mid game which is annoying when you hasn't saved something. on my brothers pc it stops working as soon as it is opened so i think its probably a performance problem as his pc isn't as good as mine.

its normally and hour or two into it by which time i forget about it and forget to save.

ok, thanks guys, and Aod ill try and see what frame rate im getting, i use 1680 x 1050 too.

not all that dissimilar to my rig, i get high frame rates too, don't know the exact amount but is very playable with everything high, and views far.
