Any time I play it will freeze at some point. For example when you talk to someone it will freeze, people are still moving but the curser and keyboard its as if I have no mouse or keyboard anymore so I can't do anything, keeps doing this wtf?
Oblivion freezing...

I searched for hours and hours, then days and days, then weeks and weeks for the solution to this. Well a slight exageration but it had me baffled and google was no help.
Here is the fix that worked for me
Go into your oblivion.ini file and disable music (bMusicEnabled=1 to a 0)
This will fix the issue, but leave you with no music. Now I'll direct you to the original thread, but the bottom line for myself was to install the KLite codec pack then re-edit the oblivion.ini file to allow music.

I've never been a fan of codec packs, but it was the only way I could get the game working. I'm sure there are other ways, but I'll be damned if even the great google has the answer. Sure there are similiar locks up and various fixes, but not for this exact issue.
