    [​IMG] I just upgraded to a new gaming rig. I installed BG2 SOA/BG2 TOB disks with Bonus disk. Now all that shows up on the start screen is SOA. How can I get TOB back? Any suggestions are apreciated.

    Reinstalled everything back on my old rig. Works fine.Old rig has a CD-Rom drive,new one has DVD-Rom drive. Was wondering if there was something wrong there. I reinstalled 4 times on new rig, same thing happens. Any guesses?

    I mean the latest patch for throne of Bhaal, that you can download right here on sorcerers place.

    If that doesn't work, I would probably try strange solutions like using the cd-drive from my old rig in my new one. Have you used the same DVD-drive to install all content (don't know if this could be related to te problem tho)
    Also I once had a problem with Outcast installing and it deleted itself after, maybe this is a similar problem.
    Try checking software in the configuration panel and see if you can find Throne of Bhaal there, if not, it's not installed correctly and you got a very strange problem.
    Also update your chipset drivers (if you haven't done so already)

    You have enough room on your HDD, so why don't you create an image file of the ToB CD and transfer it to your new rig. Then using the actual SoA CDs, install the full version of the game, then use an image drive program...like Daemon Tools or the like to install ToB. (Don't forget to install the ToB patch!)
    That way you'll never need to put any CDs in your drives. That's the way I've been playing, and it works great, considering I have a laptop, and not having to use my drive cuts down on noise and heat...which is a good thing if you didn't know. :rolleyes: :rolling:

    Yeah, that could work too. It's also a better way to save your cd's from certain doom (as with my Throne of Bhaal cd, which has a large crack in it due to too many uses :( )
