I was just wondering if anyone else who only got a white screen tried playing through a small bit. Its a lot more fun than you would think, however, you can't open your menus. I am very shocked how fun Bethesda could make a game when its nearly impossible to see anything.

Yes, I had that problem, too. But I searched the official Elder scrolls forums, and found some solutions (it had something to do with putting in values in the hidden 2nd oblivion .ini file), which helped with the whole 'white screen' thing.

So, just check out/stalk the hardware/software/technical problems sub-forum in the Oblivion forums, and you should be able to find some good solutions.
