Not about OpenMW? Just about Morrowind in general? Have some random babble? Kindly direct it here.

Happens on Linux too. I wanted to make a similar witty remark but decided not to when finding all kinds of kernel panic bugreports regarding Fn-keys on Linux :)
Still not fault of Toshiba... Isn't it?

Edit: well... it might be actually. It is possible that pressing Fn overwrites random pieces of memory?

I've seen that before on supermicro and tyan boards when 'legacy usb' is enabled, it would use a part of RAM which of course would kernel panic Linux and BSOD windows. It was not until after running memtest86+ that I narrowed it down to RAM and swapped it out with new RAM to have the same problem. In the BIOS I turned everything off and started running memtest86+ after turning each option on one at a time.

Anyway, good luck!
