lol you will probably notice in your task manager theres a rundll.exe running after you launched it once. may or may not cause serious cpu usage. its a bug every old game has, they try to reach an old microsoft website that no longer exist in order to check for updates, instead of the rundll.exe closing itself like it should to launch the game it stays open
sorry but it just doesnt work. everytime you close it, you have to start old games twice. they refuse to run without rundll32 running too. it should be fine if it stays on 0 cpu, but if not i think you are in for a long journey on how to fix it. every game seems to have different fixes, and most seem to only be temporary. however if you dont play with mods requiring something like obse in oblivion, the best fix is renaming the application, for example oblivionn. rundll32 wont know its the same game and oblivion is free to start without it. i think you will have to add "oblivionn" into your steam library though, or maybe you can change the direction of the game itself in the library. i dont know for sure because i dont have it on steam but on cd
but just to clarify, if its running on 0 cpu usage, try launch the game twice and it should work. you can ignore the rundll32 in that case, its only if its causing your pc to overwork itself that you may want to find a workaround
