Problem with ToSC

Dadams1 · 06-11-2003, 05:48 PM

Ok, I play SoA frequently, and it's a great game, so recently I decided to go back to the original game, complete it, and export a character onto SoA. Well, ToSC doesn't load up when I click "Play". I have the 3 TOSC discs and, from before that, I have 4/5 disks for the really original first-released game, which is why I just don't play that. Both ToSC and the original are installed. Can anybody help me with my problem?

You should only have the 3 disks with TotSC installed. Those disks contains both the original BG1, the TotSC expansion and the latest patch.

Try to uninstall the original 5 disk version (you might have to uninstall and reinstall the 3 CD version as well).

Hope this helps

Well, I tried that, and it doesn't work. See, I have both installed, but when I try uninstalling the original and then playing ToSC it doesn't work. When I press "Play" when only ToSC is installed, it just doesn't play. When I try to uninstall the original when ToSC is installed, it still doesn't work, and when I try to uninstall ToSC it says "Could not find install directory" or something like that. I think it recognizes both games as the same thing, and when I uninstall 1 it always uninstalls the original, not ToSC. When I try to uninstall that it gives me the message. So, you see my dilema?

Unistall one, delete the other, install in a new directory.

How do I delete 1 as opposed to uninstalling it?

Dadams if the idea of remove just one is too confusing try just removing everything BG1 and reinstalling only the 3 disk + ToSC or the 5 disk + ToSC.

GO into my computer>c drive>program files>black isle and delete whichever version you cant uninstall.
