You could try to install BGTuTu, which basically lets you play the first game in BGII's engine. You get the advantages of being able to use a character class that wasn't available in the first game. The gameplay is also improved, as well as the graphics. It's a bitch of a thing to install though, it took me a few goes to get it to work properly. Now all I need is a way of playing my BG1 saved game...
