    I am considering upgrading from Windows ME to Windows 2000 for more stability and security etc. But I have heard that TOB has problems running on this OS, is this true and are there any patches i can use to fix this?

    I didn't have any problems with TOB running in Win2000, but I did have trouble playing BG in Win2k. Good luck!

    I'm still having a lot of trouble but I dont think win2k is the reason. In my case it's more like a disagreement with my grapich card. It should be able to run just fine, though you probably need the latest patch to make it run properly with the win2k service pack 2

    I had problems playing BG2 and ToB after installing ToB. But the patch released fixes that bug.. "character appears busy" when you try to initiate dialogue with NPCs under w2k.
