Got little problem. When I install BGII it asks for cd2 location, when i specify cd2 it wont install files from that disk but it asks right away for cd3 location and so on to the cd5 location? but i have only 4 BG-SOA cds. The 5th cd is Baldurs Gate II - Throne of Bhaal expansion (and i tried that it wont accept BGII-TOA as cd5). Any suggestions?

Never had that problem with the retail release - some games in the past you usually end up having to put the first CD back in so try that if you haven't already.

Is it retail or copied?

just a wild guess: try running the setup.exe or install.exe in win98 compatibility mode (assuming you are using xp or 2k). might be worth a try Confused

Are you by any chance using two different cd drives to install the game? Make sure you put each cd in the same drive.

I've had the same problem. The cd was scratched. The solution was to get a copy of the cd from a friend.

I had almost the same problem with my retail copy. I copied the cds to the hdd and ran it from there and it worked perfectly. Very Happy

Agree gutyreader Wink I just want a game with the same depth and scope! I trust Dragon Age will give us that. I also have a small hope for NWN 2 developed by Obsidian.

jojox - hopefully everyone will be atheists one day!
