Riddle of the Sphinx - Disc Count?

[GageBlackwood]

This may seem a bit of a strange question, but do bear with me. Right. I went ahead and picked up a copy of Riddle of the Sphinx off of a trading website. It has since arrived. Outstanding. However, I have no clue whether the game is on three or four CDs. I, based on nothing whatsoever, assumed it was four prior to ordering. You may have gathered by now that my case contains 3. So, am I set to play? I thought I might ask, as the idea of getting roughly 3/4th of the way through a game and being prompted to insert disk 4 wouldn't be fun. This isn't a floppy version of Monkey Island, you understand. Am I wonderfully set, and all the(Well, hopefully) giddy excitement that this implies, or am I inexorably screwed? I'm happy with either answer. So an answer would be excellent.

Thanks in advance for any help given,

I just checked the one I have and it has three disks.

Thank you very much Melanie, particularly for the expeditious nature of the post. I can now further my adventuring exploits.

Yet further thanks for pointing me in the direction of the administrators. Two birds with one stone. Ideal.

You're welcome!

I've play RotS at least three (?) times. It was early in my gaming career and I always had fun with it. It's got loads of inventory and I always found exploring the Egyptian ruins lots of fun (even though the theme has been done often in AGs). I might replay it again someday (as it's been quite a while).

If you end up liking it, there is a sequel called The Omega Stone.

Edit: There's also a patch here (http://www.gamespot.com/pc/adventure/riddleofthesphinxanea/download_2675475.html).

Some have gotten a Quicktime error and there's a post in this thread (http://www.adventuregamers.com/forums/showthread.php?p=453927&highlight=riddle#post453927) that contains an installer to deal with it.
