Let me ask you a question.

What the FUCK are you doing embedding movies in a Word document, and WHY are you doing it so often that this is a notable compatibility error?

(There's a really easy answer to your situation: treat it like a text document, and not a kitchen sink.)

Rebooting Baldur's Gate itself is pretty unlikely at this point. For one thing, the Realms has advanced past Baldur's Gate by one hundred years (making the original plotline implausible, if not totally impossible) and now includes the events of the BG games as canon.

Additionally, D&D's gone through two edition changes since then, so many of the game mechanics would be different. Both of these changes were made at the product/brand manager level, so it's entirely unlikely that Hasbro would be willing to budge on them for product identity issues.

However, in the 4e Realms Baldur's Gate has significantly grown against the descent of the City of Splendors. I think it's entirely likely we'll see a 4e Realms game that is called Baldur's Gate and is set in Baldur's Gate, but it won't have any relation to the original games, and it definitely won't have BG2's gameplay or BG1's Realms literacy (the Dead Three etc.)
