Hey guys (and girls), I haven't posted in a while but...here I am. I've owned BG2 (w/out ToB) for about two years and in the last six months it has developed a recurring bug. Every once in a while it decides to think that it isn't actually installed (all the files and stuff are still there but it says "Install" instead of "Play"). So it gives me the install option and (very irritated) I click it, an it goes ahead and UNinstalls the WHOLE GAME. Then I have to reinstall and THEN I can resume my game, with my character, right where I left off. Now until recently I was willing to put up with this but the last time I reinstalled it, IT DIDN'T WORK AT ALL. So now, no matter how many times I uninstall and REinstall it only gives me the "Install" option. Has anyone ever encountered this bug? Has anyone ever resolved it? I'd appreciate any help because I've been looking forward to summer for a chance to kick some Irenicus ass for the better part of the school year!

Thanks so much,
Decurion
