I was previously using the 84.21 drivers (I belive), however when I would walk into the imperial city market area, right after the sewers, I would artifact HORRIBLY. Sooo, I decided to change my drivers to the 84.25 as they're "Oblivion optimized". I uninstall them, use driver cleaner, and install the new ones. I load up Oblivion, and all seems much smoother when looking around with the mouse. I then attempt to walk, and I can't. It's as if I'm stuck. Howeer, I can look with the mouse, jump, crouch, and use my weapons. I just simply cannot move forward, back, left, or right. It does move a pinch, but as if it were in 16x Slow Motion.

Has anyone experienced this? Any fixes?

Thanks!
 
The corruption, I can't help you with. The slow motion movement, however, numerous people have pointed to having a joystick or other controller attached to the computer as the cause of. You might look into that.
 
Yep, Right after I posted, I looked it up on the TES forums, and fixed it :). I didn't have to disable it. I simply had the throttle up instad of down. I also recalibrated it, and wiped out all joystick config keys in the Oblivion setup.

Now everything is fine - Yay!

Thanks :)
 
You are a life saver. I've been wondering what the heck was going on with my Oblivion gameplay and just realized I had plugged my joystick back in to play Descent 3. Thanks for saving me from reinstalling the entire game.
