    [​IMG] Well, a custom install means you get to choose what is installed to the hard drive for the game, cutting down on cd accessing and also cd swapping when travelling. All in all it saves hassle :).

    If you have the space required, always do a full install. It will save you a lot of CD swapping.

    When you don't have enough space, you can still choose recommended install and select the places you visit regularly (Candlekeep, Bergegost, Nashkel, Friendly Arm Inn) so you don't have to swith cd every time you visit that place.

    In that case, the only good thing of a full install is that you have faster load-times...
