From time to time the faces of NPC's and weapons appear complete white. Wth? I have the official patch.

Which graphic card are you using and also are you running the latest drivers for your card? System specs would be nice...

Are you using HDR? Sounds like it. I used ATI when I played Oblivion and usually switched to bloom because of the white-out effect. Did finally get some cards and drivers that toned it down some.

I had the exact same thing. Sometimes it's just their eyes or mouths but staffs are usually all white. I don't remember if I fixed it or not.

1. Get the latest drivers from Nvidia.com
2. Makesure the game is updated to the latest patch
3. Makesure the graphics card or other components of your PC are not overheating.

Try turning off HDR/setting it to bloom.

Yes, change to bloom if your using HDR and see if the problem gets solved.

It was on bloom and I tried changing it to HDR and the problem still persists. I am going to try to turn it off completely so see it that fixes it.

Oblivion has lots of texture mods. Nude mods too for those who don't have access to inexpensive excursions.

If it is still to bright with bloom try turning down the brightness setting on your monitor and the in game brightness. Old advice from the Oblivion forums. If you haven't already done so. Another bit of standard advice from the forums is to calibrate your monitor.
