RAM size : 1,023.48 MB
OS Version: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 (Build 2600)
Video card: Radeon 9600 pro 512mb
Every thing is on medium
bloom is but it doesn't work is this becouse its Ati or becouse its just a crappy card, and is there any way to fix this or should I just leave it whithout bloom?
Thanks

edit- Catalyst 6.3 Windows XP - Driver Download this right?
also is this required AVIVO Video Converter Engine or can I skip it?
ok I installed Catalyst 6.3 Windows XP - Driver but while it was installing it said Extracting display drivers - Failed process or program already in use then it skips it and installs the catalyst control center so im not sure it work no matter what I do that part always fails....
Yup bloom still doesnt work I dont know how to make it install correctly...
I got the demo, very amazing game.
fully uninstall the drivers, do a driver clearner, reboot, then install fresh driversQuote:

Its kinda shit that bethesda haven't bothered to try and make it compatible with graphics cards out there and so loads of peeps are having problems, but even if you whack down the resolution (mines at 800x600) and turn off loads of the special shit like pretty trees, grass and water its still a frickin sweet game.
If you're dead set on getting everything as good as it can be, then there might be info on the main oblivion forums...

personally i'd just give up, the game is good enough without the sweetass graphics.

Ya I fully uninstalled the drivers and restarted and everything, But It never worked ill just play without it, still rocks!, thanks for the help though Guyver
I may get a Nvidea 6600 gt in the near future does any one know what lvl of graphics you can play on with that?
6600gt? You won't see much of an improvement at all...Quote:

Yeah 6600GT runs medium, 800x600 Res, bloom, Water ON, Dist. ON. I'm happy with it, but get a higher card.
Im grabbing a 7600GT just for this game, it beats my current card by almost 2x which means I should be able to run Obli on pretty high settings, since Im already on like 75% of max settings with Bloom and 4xAA, 16xAF.
And a 6800 runs ALL that?Quote:

Your scenario would only make since if you OCed the shit out of your card and play with like 10 fps.
I play the game with A 6600GT on medium graphics. However i have changed to HDR instead of bloom! Turned off Anti-alising and v-syng. EVERYTHING else is on though
! But the resolution is still 800x600.
The game runs well with no problems like lag etc!
whats bloom?
I have my card OC'd to 400/750 MHz.Quote:

it's sort of like, really bright light :ermm:Quote:

And bloom isn't that noticable anyways, it's only when you turn on HDR that you will really start get dazzled by all da pretty lights.
