Random MGE XE issue

[Deleted11834868User]

Somewhat ironically, as I'd just given the method I use to get MGE XE working for me for several months, something extremely bizarre has just happened.

I just made a fresh installation of Morrowind from Steam, as I often do, no problems ever arise.

I copy and pasted the MGE XE from the Nexus (http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/41102/?), which never worked on its own - I had to copy over it with the patch from here: http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/26348/?

Then it would work. This is the only method that's ever worked for me, with any version of MGE. I don't know why.

I checked to make sure it was working, and it was. So, I preceded to install the first round of mods; all well used by me, tried and tested, no bugs or errors ever. When I checked to make sure the game would run as a precaution, the resolution was all bungled up, like in the vanilla Steam version. So I ran MGE XE, and it gave me the same message I'd avoided all this time, the 'can't find, run Morrowind as administrator before running this' one.

It's weird, because I'd already installed it, checked it was working, and ran the game twice with it working. It just randomly quit working, for no reason.

This is very specific and very odd, but does anyone have any ideas on what to do? I've tried everything I can think of to get it to run, and it won't now. Even re-installed Steam to a different location.

Cheers if anyone can help.
