OBLIVION Help Needed Pleaseeee

Hi, I installed the game Oblivion and when it finished installing, the last screen of the installation which is mostly a black background came up (as it should) and it wouldn't close out or anything. So I went to task manager and closed it because that was the only way to do so. Finally I double clicked the Oblivion icon, and clicked play. This is where the error occurred- It started to load once I clicked play and then it goes to an error box that says "Failed to initialize renderer.NiXAdapterDesc::GetDeviceCaps()failed." Will Some 1 please help me on this?

Thanks a lot.

 

I would reaaallly appreciate it if someone could solve the problem. THX.

 

have you already tried uninstalling, and reinstalling?

 

Oh and another thing - I cannot uninstall Oblivion. I have tried lots of ways to uninstall it and it just won't uninstall. Please Help?? :confused

 

So the answer to that is basically what I have just mentioned. I can't do so.

 

Sosaman- Have any suggestions?:confused

 

how did you try and uninstall it? add/remove programs? or in the start menu, is there an uninstaller (start --> all programs "your game folder")? are you getting an error message? if so, what is it. - sos
