Baldur's Gate 2 technical problem

Lord Delarue · 04-05-2002, 03:53 AM

When i'm trying to install Baldur's Gate 2, and the install bar goes to about 83%, it just stops and says there is a fatal error, has anyone had this too? I have the original cd's and there are almost no scratches on them, another problem is that when i install it, it ask for cd2, ok fine, put it in, everything works, cd3, everything works, cd4 everything works, and then the install program asks for cd5, but to my knowledge there is no cd 5, can someone help me on this one, i'm addicted to BG2, and then i can't play it so that's a real bummer, please help

Possibly ToB CD?? or it means put CD1 back in?? Neway I would take it back and get another copy (assuming u just got it) cause thats wat I did when my 1st copy didnt install properly.

But i've got the game for a while now, i had to uninstall it becuz i had to reïnstall win XP, but before that all went fine, there was only one day difference between the uninstall and the reïnstall of BG2, maybe it was a problem with TDD, but i don't think that's the problem.

I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM EXCEPT I FINISHED BG2 AND UNINSTALL AND NOW IT ASKED FOR A 5TH DISK. I HAVE WINDOWS 98. SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I BOUGHT THE GAME WHEN IT FIRST CAME AND SO I CAN'T TAKE IT BACK BECAUSE I MOVED OUT OF STATE. SO IF ANYONE CAN HELP PLEASE DO.

Just put back disc 1

I had that problem at first, but after a while (5 or 6 times trying to reinstal) it just didn't want to start, i think my problem is evolving, first i had the problem with the disks, then i had an error message when it was installed for 83%, and now install wizard doesn't want to install no more when i'm trying to install BG2, i get the error message: Error Installing Ikernel.exe: (0xa00)

You need to put disk one, not disk 5.

I know that now, but now it's to late, look above at the problem i have now, and everything i try fails,

,and i don't like it, but thanks for trying to help me anyway
