Fail to install Oblivion on Windows 7

Post by QCBB »

Hi everybody,

First, sorry if my English is mistaken, it's not my native language.

I didn't find on any other website a solution to my problem (which however seems to be known and posted on some topics) so I'm trying to find help here.

I tried to install The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Game of the Year Edition on Windows 7 but SecureRom doesn't allow me to do it.

I also tried to delete it with SecureRom Removal Tool which didn't delete everything, then to delete the SecureRome key with RegDelNull (on the command line) but at every launch of the game's setup, another key is being created.

I finally tried with softwares like SR7.Stop, Anti-Blaxx and Y.U.S.A + Deamon Tools but nothing works.

Thanks a lot for your help.

If you are trying to install the game from a virtual rom .iso, .img .cue and so on, you could try turning off all your Firewalls and Anti-Virus programs, as they can block "setup.exe" files for no reason, it has happened to me with a lot of old games that I have, and turning off all the security always seems to do the trick, with new games as well as old games. Just log off the internet while doing so, to be totally safe.
