Hi there.

Im having trouble with my copy op Morrowind right know. After getting off the boat in Seyda Neen and walking along the dock the water flashes in and out of the proper textures and on the door and on the people's clothing and joints. Its impossible to play the game like this. Every texture flashes white every few seconds depending on which way i am looking. Is it my computer? I dont think is is out of date enough to not be able to play a 2002 game like Morrowind. I had no troubles with the game on my other computer so it is not the disc. PLEAAAASE HELP!

Im playing with Tribunal and Bloodmoon installed by the way. And I have all of the patches. I have also tried many times reinstalling the game. Nothing works.

The most common reason for that is a dying video card, however, that generally makes it pop up in other games as well.

Some things to try are stress-testing your video card, particularly by running some graphically intensive game or a benchmarking app, then running disk check utilities to make sure the disk isn't at fault. If both of those come back ok, run a RAM check tool, install MW on a different drive, and try again with another video card if you can. Try turning off all background apps as well, update your DX runtimes, turn your desktop to the classic theme (no matter what OS you're using). If none of those work, then we can think of other things. :)
