Oh man ... people need to

Its really annoying when people don't read the readme.txt and instead ask for a 'new' converter tailored for their computer!

my bad...

I apologize for wasting your time and hope I will not be a bother to anyone here in the future. You could have kindly directed me (an inexperienced newcomer) to the readme instead of insulting me though. Yes it's true I did not read the readme, but instead read the installation instructions provided on the website (apparently that is a crime...). I just wanted to know if anyone would be willing to help, rather than point fingers at me and call me an idiot.

I have a different problem though, The esp converter parses the morrowind, tribunal and bloodmoon files, but it can't create the 'morrowind_ob.cnv' Here's what it says:

Welcome in Morrowind Morrowind to Oblivion mod translator v0.98

Parsing Morrowind.esm
Parsing Tribunal.esm
Parsing Bloodmoon.esm
can't create C:Program Files (x86)\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\Morrowind_ob.cnv!
press enter...

This problem could be because of Windows 7 although I doubt it. I checked and the directories are all correct. I apologize if this is a frequent problem, or a problem that is resolved in the readme (don't blame me please). Here's what my Morrowind.ini Interface looks like:

; Initialisation file containing Path and Files to use
; with Morroblivion ESP Converter and NIF Converter
; lines to be ignored begin with ";", to uncomment a line
; just remove the ";"

; Morrowind and Oblivion paths, don't forget to change them
; if you did not install the 2 games in the default folders

Morrowind=C:\Program Files (x86)\Bethesda Softworks\Morrowind\
Oblivion=C:\Program Files (x86)\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\
; Master files to convert with ESP Converter,
; ignored by NIF Converter

Master 0=Morrowind.esm
Master 1=Tribunal.esm
Master 2=Bloodmoon.esm
;Master 3=PNOG.esm
;Master 4=
;Master 5=
;Master 6=

; Archive files to use for conversion,
; used by both ESP Converter and NIF Converter

Archive 0=Morrowind.bsa
Archive 1=Tribunal.bsa
Archive 2=Bloodmoon.bsa
;Archive 3=PNOG.bsa
;Archive 4=
;Archive 5=
;Archive 6=

; Mod files to merge with during ESP/ESM conversion,
; ignored by NIF Converter

;Mod 0=Better Clothes_v1.0.esp
;Mod 1=CanadianIce Robe Replacer.esp
;Mod 2=Armures de femmes.esp
;Mod 3=
;Mod 4=
;Mod 5=
;Mod 6=
;Mod 7=
;Mod 8=
;Mod 9=

Please inform me if I should have created a new topic for this problem, and if so, I apologize and will move this topic immediately. If this is a resolved problem, a simple redirection to the resolved topic in the forums or article in the readme or FAQ (rather than more insults) would be very appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Try running the converter as

Try running the converter as administrator.
And if that fails you may have to try installing oblivion in a different location that is not "C:\Program Files (x86)..."
