When I go to use the construction set and try to load up the oblivion.esm fle, I only get few pecent through the load when the program stops responding. Any idea as to why this might be happening? I do have the 1.2 version of the game, so compatability shouldnt be an issue. Now I am using windows vista and do have a bunch of mods insalled as well. Could these things have any affect on the load? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

- First, are you loading just Oblivion.esm, or all of your mods as well? Try it with just Oblivion.esm.
- Otherwise, Vista and the CS don't get along too well. Some suggestions from the forums
- Disable User Account Control
- Install Oblivion to a directory OTHER than Program Files
- Try compatibility mode, but you may not need this step (mine runs fine without it)
- try going to your program files folder and make sure that read only is unchecked. I had a similar issue with the company of heroes beta and that fixed it. Oh and goto security and make sure that your username has full access. I wouldn't rely on running as administrator to ever do anything. I've seen it work maybe 5% of the time. and even then there is some other dumb security feature that you still have to get around.
