I'm pretty sure it's Vista Home Premium.

It's a Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit Operating System.

I hope that helps you in figuring this out.

Yeah that helps, if you do everything in my previous post it should remove all traces of the Oblivion install and update the components you need in order to play the game.

Okay, I actually was able to uninstall the game by looking through the files on the disc, so my computer now says Oblivion is uninstalled. Are all of the downloads in your post free and safe to use?

Yeah they are all free and safe to use. The revo uninstaller is 100% free but the Tune Up Utilities is only free for 30 days. But my advice is to use it for the 30 days to fix the problems you have and then uninstall it.

The ones iv listed as updates are all from the microsoft website so are all free and safe to use.

Does it matter in what order I install the updates?

After I hit "correct problems" it gives me three options. "Tune Up Disk Doctor" "Tune Up Repair Wizard" and "Tune Up Undelete". Which one should I click?

Re: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion issue---My game won't work

When you installed tune up utilities from the link i gave you it should have placed two icons on your desktop. A Tune Up Utilities icon and a Tune Up 1 Click Maintenance icon. You click the Tune Up 1 Click Maintenance icon and then click on correct problems and then click on close and that should be it.

If youve done what iv said above exactly and it still gives you those three options then it most likely means its dettected a major problem. Click the Tune Up Disk Doctor option and put ticks next to all your hard drives then click Next. Then click on Thorough Analysis and click on Next
