Something isn't working
Someone help me out. I'm relatively new to modding. I know the drill. Download. Place in folders. Blah. Blah. Blah. However. When it comes to activating it in the "data files" under the launcher menu. I can't click anything. What's going on?

Have the GotY edition. Reinstalled it not long ago. And yes. It appears in the menu, but I cannot check the box..

Launcher works fine. Unless the cat walks across the keyboard and derps everything up... In general. Yes. Never had problems.

Re: Something isn't working
Went to the Morrowind-Oblivion site. Checked out the Ornate Elvish Sabers and the Ranger Tent. Wanted to try a few smaller ones before jumping face first into it. Pretty aggravating.

Going further: can you play the game if you deactivate mods?

Re: Something isn't working
This might be a silly suggestion, but have you tried double-clicking on the mods? That is, if I'm understanding your problem correctly.
I know that I've tried activating them and failing at first, until I realized you needed to double-click them.

Scozzar: The game works fine, I just can't use mods.
Pingpat: I have clicked as many as 7 times. Thanks for the help though

Re: Something isn't working
What Pingpat says, isn't silly at all. In Morrowind you need to double click mods in the game's start menu's Data Files --- in Oblivion a single click does it. So you have to start the mods there like you start a program: double click.
Otherwise, I'm confused like Scozzar.

Re: Something isn't working
I know that it requires two clicks to activate the mod. Believe me. You guys aren't dealing with it. I'm beyond confused.

Haven't touched anything. I'm pretty sure they're in the right spot.

Re: Something isn't working
Check your HDD, http://www.windows-help-central.com/win ... hkdsk.html
Click the start button
Right-click "My Computer" and select "Explore"
Right-click the disk you want to check and select "Properties"
In the properties dialog click the tab "Tools"
Click "check now"
The "checking disk" dialog appears, check both options and click start
You will probably see a message that chkdsk wants exclusive access to the disk and therefore wants to begin first thing after you restart your computer. Accept by clicking ok.
Restart your computer
When your computer restarts you will see chkdsk advancing through several different stages of verification, examining your hard disk. If it detects no errors, Windows will continue to start to your normal desktop. If there are errors, chkdsk presents a report with what it has done and waits for your confirmation.

Re: Something isn't working
I'm not sure if I understand this,
but if your problem is the morrowind launcher won't let you enable mods, you can try enabling them with wrye mash.
since nobody suggested this still and the talk is about mod conflict, I may have completely misunderstood.
