Post » Fri Jul 26, 2013 3:47 am

I've had Morrowind working on my computer before, probably about a year ago, but now it does'nt work and it brings up this error when I try to play the game on steam http://i586.photobucket.com/albums/ss309/Mad_Phellow/morrowinderror.png

So if anybody know how to fix this, please help, i gotta play some morrowind again!

This is a problem with your MGE.

A few things to check first.
Do not have the game installed in Program Files. (or just turn off your UAC)
Disable the Steam overlay.

Both require Morrowind to work correctly with mods.
