Well now I've noticed this problem, and now it is really starting to piss me off. First off, it isn't just with Morrowind. It is with every friggin game I have.

Every time I load up Morrowind, it resets my preferences back to the default. It does the same with the Construction set (which is now even more annoying since I use it 24/7). It resets my NWN preferences also.

But it doesn't do that with windows 98, which I also have on another comp which I use also. So what is it with windows XP that makes it constantly resets myh preferences?

Since this problem also effect your other game maybe you can ask in GD? sorry can't be much of a help here.

Must be your PC or your XP. I am running this game on my XP Pro and have not encounter such problem at all.

Had no problems like this with either version of XP, and I've been playing for a long time with both.

I agree. I have XP too and had no problems with the game.

IT sounds like somehow your settings aren't saved into their repective files. Usually these are .ini files I believe. Check out if something is wrong with those.

You are probably using a restricted login. Try a user with full admin rights.

Ok, that might work. My account is a restricted login, I can't use certain things because of administrive properites. I thought about it, but ignored the possibility.

That is something I didnt think of. Well, did it work SM?
I also have Xp and morrowind and have not encountered this problem.

I dont think many people had a problem. It was almost definately the rights of your user, or M$ working it's destructive magic again.
