BleepingComputer.com: ES Oblivion

ok I have this odd error on my ES Oblivion GoTy-ed..... and I use vista (like the name suggests)

I have downloaded all the patches (the updates... not the "official addons") yet for some reason even after doing that, sometimes, or I should say most of the time heh, I have an odd error where if I look up/left I will see my comps basic mouse, the one my PC uses not the game one, will be shown. the most lame thing is, if I click, use an item, jump, or anything exept move (walk/run/sneak) the game will minimize. sometimes it will error like I normaly minimized it, sometimes (if I act fast nuff) the game will still respond normaly. is there anyway to fix this? Im only useing the CM partners mod and afew item mods (non-cheat items.. ust basic ones) I need help on this

Hi,

I would start by reinstalling all the patches, and remove all the mods that you have installed. If that you stop having the problem then install one patch at a time, and try playing the game. Make sure that you do a restart between installing each patch. Once you make sure that all the patches are ok you can try and install your mods, but make sure you restart between each install. I think that you will find that one of the mods is the problem but we will see.

Cheers!

it did it before I installed the patches..... hell when I re-installed it and tryed the patch I got an msg sayng there was a file that had the same name but didnt have the same info that was needed so the patch failed cuz of it... .wtf

it still does it even w/o mods.... and the file wasn't named so.... odd

Hi,

Can you please post the entire message exactly as it is on your screen. That will help us with figuring out this issue.

Cheers!

I get no msg.... all I get is my mouse on the left top of the screen..... the game minimizes... and freezes.... nomater what I do my char (and others) wont move... menu wont open... and to close it I need to alt+tab out and click EXIT on the right click menu

Could this be the game trying to crash back to the desktop and going back to Windows properly? I've had a similar issue with other titles. Oblivion and Fallout 3 both use the GameBryo engine which is notorious for its buggyness.
