Okay Im back in the game after years in Skyrim and Im getting the above problem.

BUT, Im playing Morroblivion.

The character and sword are Morrowindcentric, but Oblivion mechanics.

AND

Am I even allowed to talk about Morroblivion here? I thought I read somewhere that Beth had softened their stance on it, but if wrong I understand.

Mods, if its a banned thing, please delete the post before I get in the crap. Im not trying to upset anyone here.

No, I don't think you can talk about Morroblivion here. Lately Bethesda change their stance about http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1595264-wipz-skywind-thread-1/ though.

The mods will not ban you they just lock the thread, unless you have done something serious and got the last warning only then you could be banned.

Thanks man, the hard thing is I dont even know if its related to the mod, or just my laptop(or the other 80 or90 mods I run).

So is the CTD when sheathing the Demon Katana (bought from the Cat trader next to the Mage Guild in Balmora. Has an enchantment that Treats it as as a bound sword Im assuming) a purely Morrowind thing?

I do seem to remember in my dim dark past having issues with Bound items.

As I recall it when playing vanilla Oblivion is that the bound weapon spell expires in the moment you sheathed the http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Bound_Weapon and the equipped weapon the PC had is back, before you casted the bound weapon spell or got it from the rune stones.

Never heard of this kind of crash. I'm not sure what could be the cause, but maybe it's caused by some bad edit to the relative magic effect (something caused by a mod).

I heard the legal issues with that mod were solved, so I invite the moderators to discuss with Bethesda and check the current situation before taking any action.

Morroblivion and Skywind are no longer restricted topics here, as the projects no longer cross-use game assets.

Thanks for the clarification, Pluto. Although, I knew that Skywind recently became a non-restricted topic on this forum.

So I tried again last night and it actually crashed my laptop (sheathing the bound sword).

The game Ive started has been completely set in Morrowind so I don't know whether its a fault in the conversion, just that sword, bound weapon fault, or related to the other mods I run.

I'll try to experiment a bit, will find the bound sword spell and see if that does it, and maybe try paring down the mod list to just the morroblivion files, and see if its just related to that.

Shame really, I was really looking forward to playing Morrowind again with the updated engine, but if all else fails will go back to the actual game.

Have you tried to equip any weapon you have in your inventory, just to see if the bound weapon spell ends?

Will try that too, though Im loathe to crash the laptop too much. Its only 2 months old, and has already been away for repair for 3 weeks due to a faulty motherboard. It appears to dislike Bethesda games...heh...which is going to be a problem for it as that's all I want to play.
