I had to sweap my harddrive due to a virus and I really dont want to start over again. ut, I cant figure out how to install a save file.
I tried copying it into my data folder like everything else, but that didnt work. Any suggestions?

save goes to your- documents/my games/oblivion/saves

[LHammonds]

And if you'd like a wide selection of faces and savegames that place you at the sewers exit: Oblivion Face Totality Pack

And if you'd like to start off at a particular level: BETA Testing Characters

I have no folder or anything called saves.
I dont know if it would be a problem, but i have Vista...

If you have not started the game yet, you will need to create those folders manually.

Or start the game, create a save as soon as you can...which will create the folder structure for you.

EDIT: If you installed Oblivion to the default folder location (C:\Program Files\Bethesda....), then I'd suggest you uninstall and re-install it somewhere else such as C:\Games\Oblivion to avoid the Vista security problems which affect creating screenshots, installing mods, etc.

I think that save folder is created after first saving.

#1 - Start a new game, create a savegame as soon as you can (NOTE: you will never use this save file again)
#2 - Exit the game and place your old savegame file in the directory path mentioned in the 1st reply.
#3 - Start the game and load your old savegame.

This assumes you have the exact same mods installed now as when you last saved that game before it crashed.
