Hit F8 when booting and select "Load last known working setup" or something like that.

try doing a recovery setup with windows.   it should fix the problem.  if anything it should indicate how F the computer is.

thats good but sucks at the same time, i play oblivion on 360 and i know how much you go thorugh in that game to get good, but then again for me it wasnt that hard to get lvl 30, it just gets boring after a while of playing.... good job getting it working again though
