My problem doesn't sound the same as yours, but the solution may be. My case oblivion would get stuck at map intro, but would not show the menu buttons.

Anyway this is what worked for me. And I am not to familiar with dxdiag info so I will try to put this as plain as possible.

I found the only driver that worked for me was:

Radeon 9600 Pro Family (provided by Microsoft Corporation)
Date: 3/23/2004
Driver Version: 6.14.10.6462

Oddly enough I discover this when I uninstalled my latest driver provided by ati catalyst 10.2 or whatever. When I rebooted my pc found the hardware and auto selected the driver noted above. I gave Oblivion a whirl and was dumbfounded and thrilled that it now works.

Good Luck.
