Since my results have turned up negative I thought of some people to help, asking the company would take a while for results, but I was hoping that the Dn could have someone who knows where to buy the Elder Scrolls anthology for Xbox 360. My results have only found it for pc.

I'm pretty sure the only elder scrolls games for 360 are oblivion and skyrim. You're not going to find the whole anthology for a system that came out after the games themselves did.

Okay, Arena, Daggerfall, Reguard, and Battlespire are all for PC, dating back to the DOS days. Morrowind is both for PC and the original Xbox. Oblivion and Skyrim are for PC, X360, and PS3.
For PC, I suggest you get rid of files and games that you never use or don't want anymore, then download DOSBOX. Next, you download the files for the first four games. You drag the game application to the Dosbox application and it will play, assuming your computer can understand how to use it. (I find Win 7 to be horrible at playing older games. Too much time experimenting with compatibility mode and beseeching Microsoft for a straight answer.)
For Morrowind, either buy it for Xbox or buy it for PC. There is no guarantee that it will work for PC. If it doesn't work, try it in compatibility mode (This is for if you're using Win 7)
For Oblivion and Skyrim, they'll work perfectly, all you need to do is find a good copy and install them.

I have skyrim and oblivion with DLCs, but I'd also like a new morrowind copy without a problem and Dlcs. The maps aresomething I'd like too.

Morrowind works fine in my Win 7. You're better off getting the full edition with both the expansions Tribunal and Bloodmoon, since they're pretty good, better than the Skyrim DLC stuff was imo. The game comes with construction set with which you can view all the map files and there's ginormous amount of mods that enhance gameplay only for PC, so I'd definetely go with that instead of Xbox version.

The frag is XCylinder? I googled it, but all I got was some sort of program that makes 3D cylinders (???)

I didn't literally mean that, I didn't want to say Xbox and I wanted to also sound funny, to myself at the very least.

No. A PC game cannot work for the Xbox. Though, you can get an Xbox emulator.

So in other words, I should waste my money on something else since my pc has a small storage left.
