It does appear to be a gfx issue try systematically shutting off all extra gfx options such as render distant objects see if that corrects it or try reinstalling from scratch NOTE: when you put addons some of them can Overwrite old meshes perhaps those meshes were stuff that was overwritten
don't worry much about "Saved games" they are stored under documents and settings directory and do not get removed on uninstall however may not work if it requires certain addons

Have you installed the newest DirectX C?
How much onboard memory do you have, cpu speed, how much memory does gfx card have? I could probably set you up with a character just outside the sewers however if more than one spot is boggy it may crash like if you enter a certain house.
I cannot install oldblivion on this computer however if you wish me to make a save point outside the sewers let me know and characters needed. (race, birthsign and class based on standard setup)
Please disable any and all user defined mods try it that way, if still does not. then reinstall oblivion fresh. User defined mods can overwrite existing meshes and cause problems
finally you are using a card that shares memory? Thats bad you need ones that has its own otherwise its leeching all the cpus memory

If you still need it i put it on this location on the web
[url=http://www.geocities.com/rgunte19/oblivionsavefile.zip][/url]
If you cannot get to the site please give me a valid e-mail here i will file send it. it is a standard imperial but It is right outside the starter dungeon (when you first get fresh air) command to change class/race/birthsign is clicking ' key (tilde) and typing any of these
"ShowClassMenu" Show the class selection screen
ShowRaceMenu" Show the name/race/appearance selection screen
ShowBirthSignMenu" Show the sign selection screen
(all without quotes)
you can just change the character before doing so please remove any armor from character because kajiit may not be able to wear it.

sorry you probably have an incompatible cpu (mine shows purple water too never figured how to fix that) You should get at least a 3.0 ghz processor to do it.if in usa try fry's electronics you can often get motherboard+cpus there for really low cost

try uninstalling programs you do not use regularly. try disabling programs in active memory or stopping them from startup. Some of these programs may be using the same memory location as oblivion is. and when they hit the same exact spot blam it crashes. I can give you some details on how to stop startup programs however the technical way is like the (!) Slopes meaning you have to be extremely careful what you do writing down each and every option you disable so you can go back and re-enable it if it fails
simplest (!) Method - 1) click START then RUN type in the box -> msconfig <-
click final option STARTUP and disable programs that auto-run when you boot your computer REMEMBER write everything down you do and only disable those things you are positive of. It will free up memory and hopefully correct your problems

In the sewers I suffer random crashes, usually while in combat. I used the killall command to get past the rats, and goblins, ext. but it crashes when the guards are killing the Mythic Dawn. I also have about 5-10 FPS when i am facing the guards. I followed all the directions and here are my specs: Radeon 9200 PRO - Intel Pentium 4 2.8GHz - 1.5GB RAM.

start changing as many options as you can.. close detail, Turn Shadows Off, stop distance rendering etc, turn off anti-aliasing, set to lowest
resolution not highest. if Oblivion actually causes your computer to crash you probably need to upgrade the cpu/motherboard:(

Alright, i defragged, played with some video settings, and even tweaked .ini a little; but it still crashes. Less that before, but still crashes. Also have horrible FPS on medium video settings. On top of all of that, I spent 3 hours making mods that don't work... Game is really starting to get annoying... (Don't know why it posted previous post 3 times)
