hey this is my first time posting and im hoping I dont sound dumb.

ok I got a new computer 3 days ago and when I went to go install Baldurs gate 2 I found out that my disc two is broken.

Question- Can I use someone elses disc two with the rest of my discs?
Question- Is there any way I can install it without disc two?
Question- is there somewere to by discs seperat?

Thanks alot

You need disc 2 to clear the cd check when you start the game i believe..if you have a friend who has a disc 2, you might wanna borrow it if he/she doesnt need it..

OK first i must say congrats. on not refering to pirating. Second i am sure you can mix disc because i did it with BG1. You can not buy just one disc and you need all the discs to install it. I suggegest you re-buy the game it wont be that bad the price of BG2 has gon down.

Second of all, there is no dumb question [img]smile.gif[/img] Don't feel stupid about asking a question, the forums are here for your questions to be answered [img]smile.gif[/img] .

Third of all, I wouldn't suggest buying another copy of the game. Is your disc 2 literally broken, meaning, is it snapped in half or something? Or is it just not working? If it's just not working, maybe you can try burning it to another CD and try using that CD as your disc 2. I'm not sure if that would work though.

Your best bet would probably be to find a friend who has the game, install using their disk, and then play the game using either your disk or a burned copy of their Disc 2.

Failing that, I believe BioWare is still issuing replacements for valid reasons; you could contact their customer support (www.bioware.com), send them your broken disc, and ask that they send you a clean copy.
