I've got a real problem with my copy of Baldur's Gate. Everytime I start it up, and the main menu appears the only options available are "install" "view readme" "watch demos" and something else that I cannot remember. After installing the game, it all runs terrificly (a bit slow, but otherwise good) until the next time I wish to play it, when the options available are the same as before, and I have to install it again! Must I install it everytime I wish to play???? This is the second time I play BG after a long time, and I've never had this problem before...

PLEASE HELP!

Do you have the windows, or mac version of the game? If windows. then try to remember where you installed it to. Go there and use the .exe file to load the game. Or you may have placed a shortcut in your Start menu; try to find it and use that instead of the autorun menu. the problem could also be viral in nature, but I wouldn't be able to help you there. If you've got mac then I'm definately not the person to ask. Then again you'd probably have more success with someone who's gotten into the programming guts of this game. (i.e. someone who isn't me.)
