Can't Uninstall Oblivion Without Disk?

Post » Sun Apr 18, 2010 12:57 pm

I'm selling my laptop to a friend. Thus I am uninstalling everything and so fourth.

Oblivion won't let me uninstall the game without inserting the disk? Really? The disk is several hundred miles away and surprisingly enough I don't feel like going all the way over there to get it. How do I remove oblivion without the disk, "you can't" isn't an acceptable answer, and it's absolutely an absurd demand to make. No other software I've ever owned has told me to insert the disk to uninstall it.

Agree with Starforce9. if you are selling it, break out with the system disks that should have came with the machine. (if they are about.....) Or, some manufacturers hide on a partition of the harddrive. Set it back to box stock.

Two agreements with Starforce.. That said, the link he provided will be enough to get rid of most of Oblivion.
