Been trying to get MGE setup with a new install of mw, when i start the game, i get only a black scree, audio works fine, but all the loading screens and main menu are black, turning off mge fixes the issue, but ive been fiddling with various settings inside the program, and searching for a resolution for about an hour with no luck, any ideas what could be causing this?

Are you using the Steam Overlay?

no i have the game on disk

I don't know the solution, but I suggest asking http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1174576-morrowind-graphics-extender-mge/

thanks buddy
