The best way to see the load order - and more importantly, re-order them - is to use one of the excellent fan-made tools for managing your mods.

For '''Oblivion Mod Manager''', you'll need .NET installed, but it's well worth it. From OBMM, you can simply click the 'Load order' view, select the mod you want to move, and then use the 'Move up' or 'Move down' buttons to re-order them. You can also right-click on a mod and select ''Move to Top'' or ''Move to Bottom''.  
For '''Oblivion Mod Manager''', you'll need .NET installed, but it's well worth it. From OBMM, making sure you are in the 'Load order' view (found in the bottom-left corner of the main window), you can simply click-and-drag a mod to change it's position in the load order. Alternatively, you can select the mod you want to move, and then use the 'Move up' or 'Move down' buttons to re-order them. You can also right-click on a mod and select ''Move to Top'' or ''Move to Bottom''.  


Be sure to get the latest version of OBMM (0.9.16 or later) since earlier versions had a problem with the Load Order View failing to sort masters (ESMs) and plugins (ESPs) properly. ESMs always load before ESPs, but OBMM's load order view wasn't reflecting this fact until Version 0.9.16 or later. You can also export a copy of your load order and then reload it later if something goes wrong or you just don't like the way things are working with your load order changes.
