Hello.  I need some help installing Oblivion on Windows Vista.  The first time I tried it, it came up with an error while preparing the install wizard thing, then I turned my firewall off, and it still came up with the same error.Any suggestions?Installing Oblivion on Vista - HELP!
Installing Oblivion has nothing to do with your firewall or internet connection.  ;) What was the error message?  What did it say? Installing Oblivion on Vista - HELP!

Still can%26#39;t figure it out.  Sorry for the impatience/quick bump, but I%26#39;m really eager to play this game :D
Two suggestions, in this order:1) Do a search for something like, ''Oblivion Vista Install Problem'' and see what comes up. 2) go to the Oblivion specific boards on this website and post there.  Mebbe they can help you. 
Sounds like a directx problem, Go here,http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?xinput1_3 
Did that work? I am having the same problem and i am running win xp.
What is your specs? Maybe the video card is not good enough.
I'd update your DirectX version and make sure your disc isn't damaged. I don't think your videocard has anything to do with it because I've never heard of a videocard having to do with an installation.

The solution is to rename or delete C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\InstallShield\Professional, reboot, and retry the install.
