    I only recently got around to actually playing BGII, and I just realized that I never installed Throne of Bhaal. Nor the "bonus CD" stuff. The installer never prompted me, and at the time I got distracted by a phone call and didn't realize it. I currently don't have ANY mods/patches installed.

    Are there any critical patches I should install if what I'm playing is straight from the collector's edition cds? If so, will I have to restart my game? I'm barley out of Iccarus's dungeon and am still exploring the town, so restarting won't be as big a problem.

    ALso, should I install Throne of Bhall now, or wait until after I've beaten Shadows of Amm the first time? I do intend to play it, just not until after I've beaten SoA first.

    It's better to have TOB installed from the start.
    You might need the TOB patch too.
