You must place all three downloaded files (.exe and 2 .bin) into the same folder, and that folder MUST have full access rights.

They're in the same folder but still not installing.

What operating system? What folder are they in? What (exactly) are the file names, including extensions?

Never mind. I just kept fiddling with it and it decided to work. Not sure why but that doesn't matter as long as it did. Right?

Sure, but isn't it better to understand why it happened?

True. I checked it to make sure the game runs okay and it does.

I guess I should explain a little better. What I did was I deleted the bin files from download folder and the folder I had the Baldur's Gate 2 install in. After that I downloaded bin 1&2 again....put them back in the folder with the install file and everything worked fine. I think when I downloaded the bin files the first time something happened to cause the files to not download correctly.

That makes sense from your description. All's well that ends well.

That's the way I see it, too.
