               As the name implies, I was wondering if there was a way to go about combining a four disc NWN: Platinum into one DVD. As of about a month ago the autoplay on my computer hasn't been working properly, and sans trying to track down that problem (which I have tried) I have given up trying to dive into the Registry Editor and have gone a more direct route. Seeing as the only thing I really need autoplay for is to install Neverwinter Nights, because the installation program won't work without autoplay.

So if you could point me in the right direction for combining these discs or help me find a modified installation program that will work without automatic disc checking it would be most appreciated.

I'm running Windows XP SP3 and I know that Neverwinter Nights works perfectly with my rig.
I just can't install it.

And just to clear the air:

No, I did not pirate the game. I have all three CD keys, all four discs, and the manual.

               I haven't tried it but I suposse that you can copy the files of the 4 CDs to the hard disk (all in the same folder) and then run the "setup.exe" to execute the installation from the hard disk. If it works you could burn that folder in a DVD so you could have your own DVD installation. You will miss the game protection but since the 1.69 patch removes it... you won't need it '<img'>

               That won't work because the setup.exe file for the CD version is designed to go through a four disc process.



I could make it work if I could get the setup.exe from a DVD version, but just throwing all the data into one folder won't do squat.



If anyone knows how I can get a DVD install file that would be great.
