Caught a nasty virus that locked me outta my PC a few days back... I had to wipe my hardrives and reinstall windows.

Discovered shortly later that my NWN2 disc's are missing... so now Cat for a while, or until I can find a way to install the game.

Sorry for your loss.

I might suggest that in the future you might want to get an external drive and install your games and other goodies there, rather than on your main drive. I have done this and it has saved me a great deal of headaches.

lots of luck

An option is if you still have possession of your books and the CD Keys, you could go find yourself a copy of NWN via torrent that's not necessarily legal, but make it legal by installing it with your valid CD Keys.

The Trouble with this, is that the virus in question targeted External devices as well, and was installed in several different locations.

Seeing as when I reinstalled and tried to recconnect my music library it was infected and I had to start the process over again.

and yea, thats what Im trying to do Ceremorph, not much luck yet.

This.

Or, alternatively, login to the OLD NWN2 forums, your CD key should be under your profile there.
