Morrowind files on a memory card

Post by Tool »

I tried a troubleshotting thing were i deleted all my saved files on my hard drive and saving one to a memory card. Problem is, I can't load the memory card file in the game, and i don't know how to transfer the file from the card back to my hard drive.

Am I really dumb or I am doomed to never play morrowind again

Firstly, is this for the pc? If so, then is the memory card a usb device? How did you transfer them to the memory card? Just do the same thing but starting with the memory card and copying the files to the Morrowind program folder. If you can't find the memory card folder to copy things back then have a look in the My Computer folder and there should be an icon for it. Or go to Control Panel -> System->Hardware->Device Manager and you should be able to find its location.

If its Xbox then I can't help as I have never owned one.

I'm sure it says nothing about morrowind being compatible with memory cards on the back of the case. That is why it won't load. I don't understand why you would delete it from your xbox though. The hard drive is huge.

There's hardly an application or game out there that mentions memory cards, yet nearly all of them will work when loaded onto a sufficiently sized one. The same applies to external hard drives. Noting this doesn't matter in the slightest.
