Hmmm, well first thing to do is check your BG1 cd's for glue. That's right, glue. I've heard a lot of people complain that their BG cd's are deffective because excess glue from the cardboard cd holder gets on them. If this is the case then either try to clean off the cd's or send them back for a refund.

Next, assuming your cd's are okay, the Autorun startup for BG must not be working. So just go down to Start, Run, Browse, then look in Drive E: (or whatever your cd drive is) and run Autorun or Setup. Then from there you can install BG1 and in the future you can run BG from the program folders or from shortcuts on the desktop, just like any other game.

Hope this helped. Good luck!
