[10th]

Another thing to recommend for any installation of an infinity engine game:
Don't install into program files or its (x86) version if you're using Windows Vista or 7.

Re-install BG1? You should have the sounds directory as part of a full Custom installation.

[Ascension64]

Do you have a C:\\Program Files(x86)\\Black Isle\\Baldur's Gate/ sounds directory? If so, can you please list all the contents?

I've noticed that the installer complains because it doesn't find femalela.wav.
I've checked my own installation of BG1, and there is a female1a.wav file.
Could that be the problem?

I haveonly the file ''sndlist.txt''

My BG1 sounds directory contains 78 wav-files in addition to the sndlist.txt file. You need to do a full install of BG1 and the ToTSC expansion. Don't forget to patch the game to version 5512.

[Ascension64]

Yes, you haven't quite told us what version of BG1+TotSC you use. Also, what language is it and where did you obtain it?
I am afraid there is no quick fix. You could of course make a fake empty female1a.wav file in that directory, but you would have to do it for a huge number of files.

Here is the entire list contained in the relevant code.

ERROR: error loading [C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Black Isle \ Baldur's Gate \ Sounds \femalela.wav]
Because of error stopping installation.

The reason for this is simple, your operation system doesn't support the old games modification in your current installation folder.

I changed course or path of the file (C:\Games \Black Isle\BGII-SoA) but no sign of improvement....I do not know what to do....

And the reason why this doesn't work is that as the files that were placed durring the installations phase are not in the said directory but somewhere else like...
C:\ Users \ *username* \ AppData \ Roaming \ VirtualStore \ Program Files (x86) \ Black Isle \ Baldur's Gate \ Sounds \femalela.wav ... of where the setup cannot be easily made to transfer the files to-and-from...

So next time, just get on with the program and INSTALL ALL the old games (-2007) to the "games" -directory or what ever you call it as in Swahily or what ever you call it in your language.

Hi, i'm italian too, and i had your same problem, i've solved installing bg 1+Tosc in english rather than italian, then patching with 5512 and then using italian language patch

That way, my bg1/sound folder seems to have all the necessary .waw files.

i hope this could help

[Gr3y]

Try reinstalling everything in C:\Games\ instead.
