Well, I downloaded and upgraded to DirectX 9.0b and CTD's seem MUCH less frequent... So I was wondering if you people have tried to upgrade to DirectX 9.0b or what version of DirectX are you using... Been playing for like 3 hours straight and it CTD like only once

Here's the link for the download if you want to try

the solutions to stopping CTDs seems to be different for everyone (shakkara claims she's NEVER experienced a CTD) but it might work

Was is Shakkara that suggested shutting down all the backround apps that Windows starts via MSCONFIG? I tried it, and I have to say it works - big time - and WinXP lets you "Deselect All" with one click.

I would suggest anyone who's still getting CTD's give her suggestion a shot.

yeah - it probably works, only problem is im always on the net and like 2 keep morrowind source handy as well as having msn up, so i always have my internet connection, firewall, anti-virus, morrowind source forums and msn running

if i got rid of em all i'd probably never experience CTDs

Switching to directx 9.0b dramatically increased my morrowind spent hours!
And increased my addiction! ^_^
