Is there any way I can temporarily undo the changes made with the .exe optimizer patches so I can use MCP, or am I doomed to reinstall?

You didn't back up you EXE file? This is a must anytime you are going to fiddle with it in case something goes wrong...otherwise you do in fact need to reinstall (unless someone can prove me wrong)

The exeopt documentation I have says:

The program automatically generates backup files. To restore a backup, just select the executable file as if you were going to patch it, then click yes on the dialog box that appears. (The backup files are named ***.fpu2ssebak, mainly for people who are using this after my fpu2sse frontend.) Clicking cancel in the dialog box will result in the patch being canceled, and clicking no will patch the file anyway, and not create a backup file.

So you should be able revert. If not, you might try installing Morrowind to a temporary directory and just use the Morrowind.exe from that. It's always good to have a fresh copy of Morrowind around, just in case you want to check how something was in its original state ... if you have the space.

Well... I guess this serves as a good example as to why I should always read the readme <_<. Everything is in working order now, thanks!

Which optimizer did you use?

I have a 4gb enabler that works great with my Oblivion game.

Is that the one (lost link).

Also then is it safe to apply that after MCP?

thanks

I used the MCP, then followed up with the Exe Optimiser and everything works fine.
