About this video

In this vid I'm showing the essentials before installing FCOM.
These are:
First make a BackUp of your current game install - oblivion folder and myGames\oblivion - and save it to something external - external hdd or cloud - where you need about 20 Gb of free space.
This BackUp has two purposes, it is your new default Oblivion install and when things go wrong you can check the default against new installs that cause problems. And if you want to have a new install somewhere else then you can copy-paste this working install without problem giving you in no time a strong foundation from where to start.
After this I'm showing the most important FCOM Web pages which help you with your install and after this I visit the relevant download web pages in the install order for FCOM.
I assume you take your time reading it all while downloading all these files so that you are aware of the difference between load order - of esp's as set by BOSS - and install order - as you are doing while using OBMM.
Finally, there are rumours that only OOO V1.35 works fine with FCOM but I do not know, neither FCOM nor OOO forum pages confirm this so for now I go for OOO V1.40, had some problems before I understood that V1.37 is now replaced with V1.40 :)
