SpiritWarrior has the best solution!!! I noticed this slow down after playing for better than 4 hours. When I came out one of the Oblivion Gates just after closeing it I was, or my character was moving in S-L-O-W----M-O-T-I-O-N and I thought I had been hexed or hit by a spell and looked at the game clock speed and it was running real fast and the trouble shooter said "Game in loop suggest restart" on my game clock speed monitor. I saved the game and hit EXIT GAME then restarted and then I reopened the game I had just save and everything was back to normal.
I also have been reading that if you turn off the footstep sounds in the game ini file this slow down will also be discontinued.
[/QUOTE]Hmm, I doubt it's related to hardware, as both you and I have high end systems, yet I don't encounter any slow down, even after 5+ hours of playing, could it be a game setting?
[/QUOTE]I think it's just leaky code in certain areas. There was one house I went to and it was empty yet everytime I faced a certain wall it would slow my fps to single-digits. I explored all around the wall and never found out what it was.
