Hepps... Seems like I have a little problem getting this one to run on my PC. I keep getting error-messages that makes little effort to help me solve the problem.

I used to run Win98SE and had trouble with the game doing CTD every time I entered the first door in Seyda Neen. So a friend of mine recommended I run Win2K pro instead, something I've changed to (SP2 installed as well).

Now I can't start the game at all, in fact I can't even enter the OPTIONS entry in the autorun menu. All I get is a message that tell me:

" has generated errors and will be closed by windows.
You will need to restart the program.
An error log is being created.
"

The change depending on what part of the package I try to run:
Morrowind - Morrowind.exe
Options - Morrowind launch.exe
TES - TES Constructio.exe

I've looked through the ProgramFlow.txt file and I get the following message:
"000816: Program Started
000816: Computer Name: Administrator
000816: Creating Windows
000816: Begin loading of archive header and invalidation of archived files
000919: Finished with header loading and invalidation
000919: Initializing Main
001020: Video adapter: Creative CT6941 (4.3.0.2100)
"

The numbers in front change each time I try to run the game, but the text remains the same.

I have updated all my video and audio drivers and I've installed DirectX 8.1 (the one on the Morrowind CD).
I have these specs:[*]Pentium III 600MHz[*]Win 2000 SP2[*]256MB RAM[*]Creative SoundBlaster PCI 128 (CT5808)[*]Creative 3D Blaster Annihilator w/32MB video-RAM (CT6941)[*]1GB swapfile (+13GB free on the install-drive)

I've double-checked all the specs and can't see any point where I should fall through. I've tried reinstalling several times, to different drives (but not to C: because of limited space).

Can anyone give me some helpful advice?
