Hangs up on Meshes.bsa

Post » Wed Aug 26, 2009 2:02 am

I try to install oblivion. However, every time I do, it hangs up for /hours/ when it's on Meshes.bsa, and I cannot complete he installation. I've gone to sleep and woken up to it /still/ on meshes.bsa.

System:
Acer Aspire 6920
Intel Dualcore 1.83 gHz
3.00 GB memory
32-bit OS

Windows Vista, service pack 2.

I've installed it on other, less powerful computers that could barely run the thing, if at all.

Check the disk. Clean as necessary. Also, cleaning the drive wouldn't hurt any either.

You may need to clean the DVD drive itself. There may be some lint on the mirror inside.

When you do get it installed, however, if your PC description is as limited as what you wrote, the game won't run. The single most important part inside of any game-capable computer apparently isn't part of that one you say is so good. You therefore may be disappointed1

Here's an HONEST version of the system requirements, as opposed to the outrageous lies in the official version:

Minimum System Requirements:

* Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows XP/64-bit
* 512MB System RAM
* 2.4 Ghz Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent processor (XP 2200)
* 128MB Direct3D compatible video card and DirectX 9.0 compatible driver;
( ATI Radeon X800 GTO, NVIDIA Geforce 6800 GT )
* 8x DVD-ROM drive
* 4.6 GB free hard disk space
* DirectX 9.0c (included)
* DirectX 8.1 compatible sound card
* Keyboard, Mouse
