BTW, I recently picked up BG 1 & 2 for cheap, having never played them but having heard they were good and since I don't mind old graphics. I had a similar problem immediately even though the disks were pristine, and found the solution eventually but don't remember it entirely. Looked like a corrupt CD but was actually some sort of bug due to the huge number or size of files. It was with BG 1 I think, and had to do with the BG 1 installer being programmed for older file systems and not being able to handle the idea of installing the whole pig at once, or something.
