I have been running BG on XP, and haven't had any problems. The only game that has given me fits was Lords of Magic. It didn't want to run on XP to save my life, so I had to wind up running it in 95 compatability mode. To my great shock, in this instance, Microsofts Compatability Wizard actually worked like it was advertised to work. :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Just for info's sake, some of the games I am running are BG2, IWD, Civ 3, Sims and NBA live, so hopefully, you won't have much trouble running anything you want to.

:cool:

There was a problem. Some NPCs like Bernard and Mae'var and so on wouldn't talk: "blah blah appears busy." But then, the patch fixed it, and there's no problem at all now. XP is great.. it even does translations for you.. which is excellent for my French class.. anyway, cheers..
