Planescape: Torment Assertion failed error

I'm reinstalling PS:T and getting an error message that says "An Assertion failed in D:\Torment\Source\chitin\ChDimm.cpp at line number 809." I know I have to edit the ini file, but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to change. I've searched for the answer, and there's an Interplay help site that has some Assertion failed errors, but the site doesn't list my particular one. Anyone know what I should do to fix it? Barring that, can someone post the first bit of their PS:T ini file?

Follow-up post - should I do a full installation with my two-disc version? I still can't find anything online about this "line number 809" error.

HI :)

Did you try installing the game in compatibilty mode,
for say win 95 or win 98.

Also, you could try do what the Interplay selv support site is suggesting - installing the game into a folder like D:/Torment. (or whatever the letter of your harddrive is)

I found a fix in this post at the GameBanshee forums, so it's all good.
