    There's a <a href="http://www.gamingillustrated.com/bloodmoon.php">review</a> of <a href="http://www.morrowind.com">Morrowind: Bloodmoon</a> over at <a href="http://www.gamingillustrated.com/">Gaming Illustrated</a>, which covers a little more than your typical review of the title. They give it a nice, healthy <b>86%</b> and point to things like this:
    <br>
    <br>
    <blockquote>Two major paths exist down the main plot, one each for the werewolf and non-werewolf player. In addition, Bloodmoon is packed from coast to coast with various quests, including ones specific to the werewolf form introduced by some effective videos. Stand alone dungeons abound as well. One large side quest involves the construction of the East Empire colony. Players who quest on behalf of the colony soon find themselves involved in the intrigue that surrounds it and its unscrupulous director (who the player can always help). As one path of the quest progresses, the player can choose what buildings to include in the colony, sort of like a simple Morrowind city-building program.</blockquote>

    Life sucks :(

    There is a patch to disable SecureCD which significantly improves performance - unfortunately last time I played it (a few months ago) it was incompatible with the official patches (such as the one that indicates enemy health).

    I'd try over at GameCopyWorld; they seem to have everything.

    hmm, sorry I don't. GameCopy World as mentioned is a good place to start.
    Also check some MW forums - that's where I found a link to it.

    sorry that's the best I can do :cry:

    Well I could find the patch you named but someone posted somethings to speed up your computer.

    http://www.pgware.com/products.html

    EDIT: Well they've worked pretty good on my system so far, my computer booted up right away like when I first started it and it opens windows in seconds but I've not tryed it on anything like a game.
