video game problems with the game elder scrolls IV:Oblivion?

I'm not really sure what's going on with my computer, but I bought Oblivion for my computer and it works but on the lowest quality so I was going to upgrade it. I was going to upgrade my computer because when I play, I only get to the part right after the king dies in the very beginning. When I open the door to the sewers and then click to open the vault to get there, I hear the sound of it opening but then my screen goes black and it shuts down and goes back to my desktop saying that oblivion encountered a problem and needs to close. I bought it off this site called Direct2Drive so i can just order it online than download it straight to my computer. So is the problem me downloading it so i should buy it at the store or is it because my computer is out of date and i should upgrade it?

1. Sounds like an upgrade problem.
2. You more than likely just need to upgrade your computer. Sounds like your Video card might be alittle either outdated/now powerful enough. Oblivion is a beast and requires some of the top systems out there to play smooth. Also if you could list your specs for your computer that would be awesome. Video Card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130085 Good for the price. I'm looking to get it myself to play Oblivion better hopefully in the near future. Buying the game won't do anything different except empty your wallet
