Baldurs Gate 1: TOSC & Vista

rguise · 06-22-2008, 07:16 PM

I just installed Baldurs Gate and TOSC on my new Vista PC, Baldurs GAte Works fine but when I install TOSCS it brings up an error message saying I can only run this version in the US and Canada. I'm in Australia and bought the game when I was in South Africa. It worked fine on my XP PC.
Help

Try running in XP compat mode? IDK if Vista has that option, I don't use it... if that doesn't work, its a pretty old game, I'd try installing XP for a dual boot

BALDAR'S GATE ROCKS!! Not played it in ages!! Anywayz follow the link below for help:

http://www.bioware.com/games/throne_....html?faqID=40
click on lick 1.39 when there.

I came accross this prob a few times whilst playing this game. Apperently, it had something to do with the publisher distributing the wrong CDs to wrong regions. *tut*

PS. The game gets even betta in Baldar's Gate II shadows of Amn. (Plus they don't have this issue on the Cds

)
