I followed the "TBP - Proper Instellation Proceedures & Common Bugs" and I'm using fs2_open_Red_2006-01-09_d.exe. However whenever I get to the first part to create a new pilot it tells me "Failed to save PILOT file." I have 13GB of freespace (no pun intended), I'm running WinXPSP2 with all the latest patches, antivirus disabled, and Windows firewall disabled. I have been able to run Freespace SCP (not TBP's version) on it's own ok.
