....But it seems everyone on IW has a beast of a system so do we really need them before I type 'em all out?
It is possible to get this game running on (geforce)ti's, fx and (radeon) 9xxx cards but with minimal settings and a 'hack' to the games' shaders, forcing use of older shading effects (I don't notice a visual difference). There are also some .ini tweaks also that help performance (I used these just for the extra boost). Oh and that FX issue, I have heard of some fixes for it although not sure if they actually 'fix' for sure.

Download this program http://atomizer.sux2b.us/screenshots...4ShaderMod.rar
It uses the older shaders with Obivion that your card can produce. The white textures you are getting are the lack of shading and your texture levels being set too high. You need to extract it and run it EVERY time you start the game. Try it on low resolution and low textures first and then work from there. If you get good fps you may be able to higher your settings a little. I wouldn't hope for much though with that card...this is a taxing game. Let me know how it goes.

If I'm that much of a minority now, I'm surprised. By Wednesday, I hope, I'll have Oblivion running in a different system with twice the RAM and half again more VGA power than at present. But I still may want to copy a game save across the LAN and play from in here sometimes, as well, so any concise, neatly compiled, readily usuable rundown on the things needed for an FX VGA (5900) would help. And if a 9800XT needs anything to help it get around SM 3, then whatever that might be, as well! Incidentally, the flood of message traffic at Bethsoft's TES IV: O forums isn't slowing down. They have had to go offline again to catch up. So far, they are not attempting to place any new player - originated stickies, either. With the rapid influx of new traffic, any good threads are quickly pushed off the top ten pages.

And no patches either, I'm surprised and dissapointed.
