The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Tips

Retail version: Copy protection prevents launch

The game has copy protection via a simple disc check. Normally the disc spins up for game validation when the user clicks play from the game’s launcher. This does not work under Crossover.

If you are in a jurisdiction which allows removal of Digital Rights Management, you may be able to use [redacted] to run the game. Unfortunately, CodeWeavers is unable to assist you because they are subject to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.


As of 03/05/2011 the game will launch if you setup the dvd-rom in the winecfg settings to point directly at the mount point and specify in the advanced options that it's a cdrom (not autodetect)
