What does it say when you start to play Morrowind?

Try here, and search for Morrowind, it might say if it isn't compatible.

And here we go again. Anyway, morrowind for pc isn't perfect, a lot of people seem to have trouble with morrowind on vista. ( Only had a few minor bugs myself. )

Try and connect, if you need to get a patch, it'll be over Xbox Live.

If you don't use XBox Live, you can apparently download the update for backwards compatibility to your computer and burn it to a disc.

The thing is that the regular Morrowind is listed as compatible, but it doesn't mention whether the GOTY edition is.


Try this link: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/e/elder ... morrowind/

On the right side near the middle is a box that says:

"Backward Compatibility
This Xbox® title is playable on Xbox 360® with a free software emulator."

There's a link to this software if you don't have it... try that.
I'll try to help if I can.

Elder Scrolls Games owned/played:

Morrowind for XBox
Oblivion for both PC and PS3
All add-ons for PC

Just obtained Arena and Daggerfall.
