Concerning the Herbal Mod for BG1, Assertion failure crashing game Options

[kix]

Just recently got into BG1 [5 disk set] and happened across the Herbal Mod while browsing through the forum. Followed the install instructions for the BG1 download, met Julius, got the herbs and then...

1) Can't find the herbal shop anywhere I've looked in Nashkel

2) Right-clicking on the fiery drake and Gaia poison herbs brought up the their descriptions, but right-clicking on all the rest crashed the game with a D-drive Assertion failure. [My D-drive being my CDrom]

I did the full-install for the game, and I've read through postings to see if anyone else has had this prob. Being a newbie to most things besides point-and-click;
I'd be grateful for any assistance with this.

Thanks

Many thanks for responding jastey & Baronius.
The herbal shop is the only mod I've added, except today I added the 30th Level tweak I recently picked up.

Please check the Read Me for the Herbal shop; everytime I click on the 'you can see this map ' link, I get a 'File Not Found'.

I'll see if I can find the entrance later [thanks jastey].

I recently picked up another copy of BG which includes ToftSC [original saga], Shadows of Amn and ToB.[Isn't Ebay and the used item stuff great?].
Eventually, I'll install them - I've just been having a great time doing different characters and combinations in my first BG1.

Since I'm a complete newbie with the mods, any recommendations you can render would be welcome. I've got only dial-up, so the 100+MB ones I've seen listed are out for now. I downloaded one marked 'Harder' to increase difficulty and xpts earnings, but I'll have to re-do the download - it came over corrupted.

When I install SoA, do you recommend BGtutu?
