Can't get game to install at all

Post by Seyal »

I'm running Windows XP on my laptop and trying to install the game on it.

It reads the CD fine and starts the autoplay screen pops up perfectly.

I click install, and the CD drive spins for a while as if its about to start, but then nothing happens. I check the running processes and setup.exe is sitting there, using some memory, but 0% processor time.

I can install it just fine on my Win98 SE and Icewind Dale 2 installs just fine on my XP system (I got both games in the collector's edition package), so I'm at a loss for what could be the problem.

That's quite an odd problem. I'm running Win XP Pro on a desktop PC and it installs perfectly (yeah so it takes a long time but hey) Have you tried to install a different size? Sometimes that happens. Or maybe look for a patch?..
