I'm about to go insane, I've been trying to figure out how to solve this for about 2 weeks.

I had ToB installed, when I opened it up it would say "Please Insert CD 2 into D:\" D:\ is my cd rom, now that's all great, I put the CD in, and nothing happens, I assume it has problems reading the CD, as sometimes it says "Please Insert Expansion CD" and the same thing happens, put CD in, nothing happens.

I uninstalled ToB and SoA, than reinstalled SoA, which is where I'm at right now.

I've tried Running it under WIN 95/98 compatibility, and still no dice.

Below is the Sysinfo from that nifty Bioware program.
