If your laptop has an integrated video chip on the motherboard instead of an
installed video card, I'd guess that's your problem. Oblivion does not play
well with low-end video cards (even some of the ones on the 'apporoved'
list).

I'd wish you luck - but I think you're out-of-it.

One thing you can try, which I used while my graphics card was being
repaired, is OldBlivion. http://www.oldblivion.com/

Go to the forums there, they have information on how to use it and lots of
ini files.
