Help with game instablility

Post » Wed Mar 09, 2011 9:20 am

My game is kind of mod-intensive, but using BOSS and Wrye Bash, I've got it running fairly smooth. However, whenever the combat music starts or ends, my game is prone to crashing. It's not every time, but fairly regularly.

Now, I say its when the music starts and stops, but I'm not sure that's related. Usually when I see an enemy ahead and start to get close, when I get to the point where combat will begin, it will crash. Similarly, when I land the last blow on the last enemy, it will crash.

Here's my load order from Wrye Bash:

I tried playing without Deadly Reflexes 6, but the problem was still there. Any other ideas?

Thanks.

Try disabling the music in the Oblivion.INI. setting is bMusicEnabled.

Wrye Bash has some ini tweaks for sound channels, you may want to use those to increase what you have. Make sure you update your sound drivers. If using onboard audi try quiet feet max (worth a shot).

I'm going to test it some more, but this seems to be doing the trick. Any idea what could cause the music to crash my game? All of my music is vanilla.

I'd really love to hear something when I'm playing.

Edit: Several combats, and no crashes.
