i installed elder scrolls 3: morrowind yesterday, and it was working just fine. but now, when i tried to run it today, i get the following error message:
Music Error: Can not play file. Data Files/Music/Special/morrowind title.mp3
the file is there, and it plays fine through winamp, but morrowind always crashes right before it loads the main menu which plays that file. any ideas?

See if the file is actually there....but mainly save your save games, reinstall, patch, and try again.

Haven't played it in a long time, but tried reinstalling it? just save your game save files.

hmm... i got it working...
i went to the morrowind forums (go figure) and there it said to rename the file and turn the music off once you get ingame. that didnt work, but when i renamed the file back to what it used to be, it worked again. huh.

First of all, post in the CORRECT FORUM.

Second of all, uninstall and reinstall. Play it, then reboot and play it again. If it doesn't work, uninstall it, run some system tools like scandisk/defrag, reboot, reinstall it, reboot, and try playing it again.

Oops, didn't see that you got it fixed. :) Cool. Good job!
