So, um, yeah. It turns out Dungeon Siege LoA will NOT load if you put the DS2 Broken World in the cd drive...
Being an idiot, I uninstalled and reinstalled DS1 and kept getting errors. I remembered I had an older copy in a different directory.
That worked and my saved games from Legends of Utrae worked but my Ehb saves kept getting a fatal error.
Gah!
I use a no CD Broken World and DS2 .exe files, and the DS1/LoA DVD installs and never required the disk to be in the drive after install. This works great when your brain has air in to like mine does. As to the Ehb files not working is the older copy in a different directory been patched to the latest version of DS1? I remember that happening to me some time ago where Legends of Utrae worked fine and Ehb got fatal errors because it was not correctly patched.
