    [​IMG] I have played the game through several times. But now, when I leave Irenicus' Dungeon I try to go to the slums and the damn game just stops. I get booted back to my desktop and the game is not responding. I've uninstalled and reinstalled but same thing happens.

    After you uninstall, go and MANUALLY delete the entire BGII folder(it remains after uninstallation and often contains saved games and such), THEN re-install.

    If that does not work then you probably have a messed up CD. THe only thing that might help then is to clean the CDs then try installing again.

    Thanks for the suggestion. For anyone elso who runs into this problem I also had to go into the registry (via regedit) and delete all BG II entries, reboot then reinstall. Seems to work fine again.

    How do you use regedit? I've been trying to get BG2 to run after I did a reinstall and all it does is crash. I can't even get the game to run.

    Click Start, Run, type regedit, click ok. That will open your windows registry editor. Now click edit, then find, type baldur, click find next and delete all Baldurs Gate II SOA entries. After one is found and deleted you may need to hit F3 to find the next one. Just be very careful what you delete, if you delete the wrong file you'll be screwed. As a matter of fact you should create a backup first.
