Over this past winter break, I went and played through Baldur's Gate 2 again, but when school started I stopped. Yesterday, I tried to resume my game, but when I put in my Throne of Bhaal disk (that's the expansion) the autorun menu had options to install instead of play. I looked at my programs in control panel, saw that ToB was still listed, and uninstalled it. It uninstalled successfully, but noted that it could not locate the registry entry for BG2 itself.
I put in the BG2 disk, and the autorun has the option to play...but nothing happens when I click it. I searched my hard drive with a fine-toothed comb, and there are no BG2 files anywhere except in something called the "prefetch" folder (being not too technical, I have no clue what that means). This has put me in this wierd sort of stalemate, where I can't uninstall BG2 and reinstall it, since the game thinks it already exists, but I can't just install the expansion because the expansion thinks it
doesn't exist.
So I'm totally stumped. Any help would be sorely welcome.
