    Hi I have the following problem..

    I installed bg 2 the dvd version in english (full) but I didn't have tob in english on cd so I installed it from emulation.

    But now I have the problem that SoA always wants cd 2 from the emulated drive!

    i tried a lot of nocd cracks...


    How do I fix this? (Without reinstall I already installed mods for 3 hours -.-)

    edit:
    ok.. I just created a iso file form cd 2 (of the 4cd version) and emulated this, but it still does not get recognized

    Situation:
    C:bad: Install Drive
    D:bad: Cd/Dvd Drive
    E:bad: Emulated Drive

    Directly after selecting between tob&bg:
    Baldur's Gate
    Wrong Disc in Drive E:bad:
    Place Disc 2 in Drive E:bad:

    [​IMG] You have to install both from the same drive.

    I don't know a way round it personally. Haven't found one in browsing casually either.

    ah I got it...

    my dreamy Windows 7 created a compatibility-copy or whatever from the baldur.ini
    after fiddling with the paths to CD2 it worked.

    But I am still kinda puzzled how bg knows to look in the wrong drive.. I mean "use drive E:bad:" is stored nowhere!
