Upon clicking on : "Play", was greeted with the message "This version runs only in Canada and : the USA" or words to that effect. After about 30 seconds of mild panic, : I just changed the Languages in the Regional Settings to English(US), and : got it working. The problem with this is that the change affects certain : properties (dates, etc) of other applications. So what I want to know is, : is there another way of getting around this, or is there a patch : available? What you can do, is go into the control panel, and choose "Regional Settings." There you can change all the settings (currency, date format, etc.) individually, but the system will still let you play Baldur's Gate. Hope this helps! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Chauvet chauve49@engr.newpaltz.edu SUNY New Paltz http://www.newpaltz.edu/fencing ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
