What does it say when you start to play Morrowind?

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

maybe you have to download a new patch.

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.
