Is this the "direct2drive" version? If so then I think it's notoriously incompatible with modding in general. You do need the physical media version.

Quote:Originally posted by morcroftI use the Steam version of Oblivion and it works perfectly fine for me. Instead of using the BethesdaSoftworks/Oblivion/Data directory (or whatever it is) you just use Steam/Steamapps/common/Oblivion/Data and you can mod with it fine.

However, I can't help with the main issue of the crashing. Sorry.
