    I am planning having a regular ToB installed on the computer and another installation for use in TDD and other mods. The problems is that I can install Shadows of Amn more than once on the computer by selecting a new folder, but when I want to install ToB into the new folder it asks if I want to uninstall ToB from the original game installation. Obviously I don't.

    Anyone with the technical knowhow that can tell me how to trick the computer into thinking that I don't already have ToB will be admired by me for a very long time...

    Please help. Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Edit registry (RUN:regedit)
    Bad side: You can not use SK.
    Even worse side: With one press of the wrong button you may have to re-format hard drive (or worse)

    How reassuring! But thanks for your advice. Have you done this yourself to know?
