Joks49: Hi, I've been having some trouble where every time I start Morrowind I get the play, data file, options, etc screen, but after I select play but the game just crashes in a black screen. I tried installing the Code Patch mod, but so far no luck (I'm on windows 7). Any help is appreciated.
Please be more specific - what does "crashes in a black screen" mean? You click "Play", then the screen goes black (immediately or after a delay? really black, or is the a small rectangular box in the top left corner of the monitor visible? Is there sound when you see the black screen?) - and what happens then? Crash to desktop? Do you cancel MW using the task manager? ...
Are there any other mods installed? If yes, uninstall or at least disable all of them and try again.
You might try to run MW in compatibility mode (XP SP3 or Vista).
