it sounds like your graphics card isnt 2.0 shader compatible, and consequently doesnt meet the minimum video requirements for the game.

here is the list of which cards are supported:
* ATI X1900 series
* ATI X1800 series
* ATI X1600 series
* ATI X1300 series
* ATI X850 series
* ATI x800 series
* ATI x700 series
* ATI x600 series
* ATI Radeon 9800 series
* ATI Radeon 9700 series
* ATI Radeon 9600 series
* ATI Radeon 9500 series
* NVIDIA GeForce 7800 series
* NVIDIA GeForce 6800 series
* NVIDIA GeForce 6600 series
* NVIDIA GeForce 6200 series
* NVIDIA GeForce FX series

if your card is one of these, i suggest you download the latest drivers for it.

if it isnt, then i suggest you head over to oldblivion, download the latest version, read the faq and enjoy the game in *almost* all of its glory.

oldblivion is a wonderful program which enables the game to run on 1.0 shader compatible cards without too much loss of visual quality.
