My Windows broke down a few days ago, and I did a new installation at another partition. Now I can not run The Game.

Is there a way to make it run (to add the information about it into the registry) without reinstalling? I would do it, but I have only ToB CD.

Boštjane, oprosti zbog svega ovoga...

Put the cd in the drive, cancel the instalation, go in the Game Folder and double click Baldur.exe. It should work.

The autorun starts, I click exit, then I double-click baldur.exe, and it opens the same autorun "screen".

it's not "baldur.exe" but "bgmain.exe"
this should work

thats a bummer, really. what on earth are you gonna do before you get it to work? what if you*gasp*, just thought of something horrible! what if you actually have to *shudder* step out of the house?!?!?! I would never have the courage...

anyway, where are your bg2 cd's? you havent borrowed them to anyone, have you? you shouldnt risk losing those "artifact level" disks.

If you cant get it to work with the method given above, youll have to either re-install with the original disks, or find and add the appropriate registry keys. Probably just easier to re-install.

Hey, RM, I have something to show you: [img]graemlins/moon.gif[/img] !

And there really is bgmain.exe, but with a misc-file icon. And it works. Great. Thanks! [img]smile.gif[/img]
