Hi, I played SoA when it first came out and last week decided to buy the 4-cd collection (BG, TotSC, BGII, ToB). While looking up info on the original game, I heard about Trilogy. I downloaded Trilogy and extracted it to my Baldur's Gate file (in Program Files). However, when I try to run the program Setup-BGT, I get an error in the DOS that says Throne of Bhaal is required. I tried uninstalling and re-installing both SoA and ToB, but I get the same message. I'll be the first to admit I'm not much of a computer person, so bare with me if this is some stupid mistake on my part. I have Windows XP and more than meet the system requirements, if that matters. Thanks in advance

Are you running Setup-BGT in the same folder that has your BGMain.exe?

Erhm, did you extract the archive in to the BG1 game folder, as the BGT is installed into the "BGII - SoA" -folder(the folder is that by default and it should be as such... it also has the ToB in it...)
The installer will then ask for the BG1 directory during the installing...

And if you have the Vista or W7, you need to reinstall the whole game(BGII - SoA + ToB + the patch v(2.5.)26498) because they prevent changes in the Program Files -sub-folders, so the game is not installed there, but prefered in a "Games" folder or something alike so you know where it is. Ah, scrach that.

Thank you Jarno! I figured it would be something obvious like that. Again, I apologize for my stupidity, thank you so much for your patience
