You did a search and baldur files popped up? Do you mean files or registry keys? It's no good just deleting the files, you have to delete the registry keys. So you ran regedit, went to Edit->find , typed in Baldur and then kept pressing F3 deleting every registry key that contained a string Baldur?
Anyway, at the very worst, you can always reinstall windows and that would definitely solve your problem so you don't have to wait. Just back up all important files on CD or another partition and reformat your windows partition and then boot from the windows setup CD. [ 10-04-2003, 11:11 AM: Message edited by: Vaskez ]

OK as already stated in the thread it probably is some registry keys still present in your registry. I would suggest that you download Regleaner 4.3, this is the free version. Install it, duh , and check the software tab (selected at start up). Remove all Baldur's gate references you find, perhaps also the Bioware references. After that the registry should be clean and you should be able to install the game.

It is now about 1.20 am and I am completely zonked out from a PnP game last evening, as well as all that desperate tidying of the mess.
But... I am so HAPPY, cos it ACTUALLY WORKED!!!! [img]graemlins/thewave.gif[/img] I almost cannot believe it actually worked... I had agonised over this for more than 8 months. You wonderful folks have no idea how happy you have made me with your kind advice and patience! Too bad it is late now, or I would start swinging my blade about and wipe out Irenicus' Chateau with vengeance! Anyway, THANK YOU EVERYONE, your helpfulness has once again shown that IW is the best place to hang around [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] |
