    [​IMG] On my latest install, BGMain.exe was somehow created pointing to the wrong drive. When I try to launch, it tells me to put the disk in drive F. No can do. It should be pointing to drive G. Anybody know a solution?

    Man, do I feel like an idiot. Here's what happened:

    When I launched the game, it asked for the disk in drive F -- normal pre-lanuch validation for the install, but not the right drive. When this happened in the past, loading the disk in another drive caused it to correct automatically, and the game launched properly. But not this time.

    Solution: When it prompts for the "expansion disk" in Tutu, it's talking about TOB (the expansion disk for the engine that is running the game), not TOTSC (the expansion for the game content). Doh! :o
