Please help me! I did something baaad!!!

[Theron Udraer]

OK, so I got this new mousepad at Staples for $4 off. It is a nice gel one. I brought it home, and when I use it, my mouse involuntarily quivers on the screen and moves in random directions. I ignored this, thinking it was cool.

So one day, opening up Morrowind Data Files folder, instead of opening the folder, my mouse quivered and I accidentally dropped the folder into CSUninstall. I quickly canceled it, of course not wanting to have my data files in CSUninstall. So now it's today, and I got to open an esp in the CS, and to my surprise, there is an error message saying "Morrowind.esm could not be found". Astonished, I looked, and sure enough, there was no Morrowind in my Data Files folder. And then I remembered the CSUninstall! I looked there, and there were my Data Files! Well, only half, since half of them were in my REAL data files folder. so, I archived them, then ripped them to my real Data Files, cut and pasted everything from the folder, but when I did, it started to say, "Do you want to replace Better Clothes 81.7kb with existing file 81.7kb?" What? 2 of the same files? That can't make sense. And then it hit me - When I canceled, some files were in the middle of being copied. Now I have a few half-files, most being necessary textures like vanilla body parts. Does anyone know how to fix this! Will I never be able to play Morrowind again! Will my brother get really pissed off at me, since it's his game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Morrowind

How do I reinstall it? I need to reinstall Tribunal and bloodmoon, too. But I don't wanna delete all my savegames... How do I do this?

I don't think you'll lose your saves, but to be safe, select them all, copy them, then paste them into a new folder and put them back after reinstalling.

Just uninstall Morrowind; Tribunal and Bloodmoon should go away as well then. Then install in this order: 1.MW 2.Tribunal 3.Bloodmoon. If you install Bloodmoon before Tribunal, something strange happens [at least for me].

Ok, thanks. I had to reinstall bloodmoon, because I got tribunal afterwards. But thanks. I'll make a backup, and hop for the best. Should I also make a backup of my mods?

No. When you uninstall Morrowind, only Morrowind files will be deleted. All saves\mods\screenshots will not be deleted. But when I had uninstalled Morrowind I still Tribunal and Bloodmoon "installed". So best way is uninstall all add-ons and only after this install all of them again.

Ok. Thanks. Will do.
