1 - See if it's a problem with MGE XE.Rename "d3d8.dll" and "dinput8.dll" in Morrowind folder to "d3d8.old" and "dinput8.old". Launch Morrowind, try and duplicate previous crashing conditions.Does it crash? If it still does then not an MGE XE problem.If it doesn't then update MGE XE (search on Nexus for latest version), the one in MGSO is years out of date. Seem to remember that latest MGE XE beta fixes some issues too. So install latest full release of MGE XE then install the latest beta over the top. Both uploaded here by same author.2 - See if it's a mod problem.Rename "d3d8.old" and "dinput8.old" in Morrowind folder back to "d3d8.dll" and "dinput8.dll" to get MGE XE back.Start a new game without mods. Deselect all ESMs and ESPs in the Morrowind Launcher (except the three Bethesda ESMs)Does it crash? Hardware or software problem.If it doesn't: mod problem.3 - Start identifying mod problemsDownload the latest mlox from here on Nexus (the one in MGSO is years out of date) and run that. Read its comments to see if there're known issues with your load list. Let mlox re-arrange your load order.Does it crash? If so then post on here with your load order (from the bottom of morrowind.ini) and the contents of your warnings.txtI've never used MGSO so I can't help out there. Someone uploaded a guide to MGSO somewhere on Nexus, do a file search for "MGSO" and that may help out. I know you'll need at the least john.moonsugar's Unofficial Patch for MGSO.

the game works fine without mge xe, but will crash once i do activate itso im 100% positive its that

This is was so obvious I'm embarrassed to even post this, but it may help somebody out, so here it is. The Data files are not packaged properly in the archive. You have to open the Data Folder and then there is another folder in there you have to open to get to the Data files. Go in there, copy the folders and files, and paste them in your Morrowind/Data folder and MGE/XE will work. If you don't do that MGEXE_gui.exe crashes whenever you try to do anything obviously. It takes a rocket scientist I guess.
