For example i have both witcher 1 & 2 so i created a folder and named it CD Project Red and installed both games to this folder . Same goes for Oblivion and soon to be Skyrim , Those will go in a folder named Bethesda

Some other things you might try is making an exception in you antivirus for the witcher 2 also if you use windows defender is add witcher 2 to the list of allowed programs . Something to try would be to temporarily disable UAC in control panel>user accounts to see if the UAC is interfering with the game . Windows 7 can be finicky if games are installed in Program Files and why i generally install my games to certain folders according to the developers

The bcd edit you tried is valid for 32 bit systems only and won`t do a thing for 64 bit systems . You could try setting your texture memory to medium . You`ll find this in the configuration tool advanced settings . It should be the second or third setting from the top . Are you overclocking your video card ? If yes then try turning down the clocks to stock .

Are you in the prolog ? If yes then there are a lot of locked doors which you cannot open . Later on in the game you will encounter a few but not too many locked doors some of which you will need a key for and others you cannot get into depending on the side you choose .

Go up the ramp to the first level at which point you should see an overhang mouse over or close to it and you should see an indicator to "climb"

Windows 7 ? Update to the 1.5 patch first and then go Here and update by clicking the 5.5 toward the bottom of the page and choose the one that is appropriate for your system and follow the prompts to uninstall the Tages drivers . Then retry the game .

As Deadlykris said and also pubic hair not shown . Which is why Wal-mart would not carry The Witcher until they had a censored version . I sure am glad i have people watching out for me !

Sounds like you want the directors cut patch http://www.fileplanet.com/203091/200000/fileinfo/The-Witcher:-Enhanced-Edition---Director%27s-Cut-Patch

You need to destroy 4 nekker nests in the forest in order to claim the reward from Louis Merse The Endrega contract also need to see Louis Merse afterwards . Louis Merse is directly across the way from the tavern . Cash is always a needy item in Witcher 2 of course you can arm wrestle , talk to Zoltan , fistfighting is done in the basement of the tavern and you can always play dice of course selling items that you pick up can help . If you open journal (J) and select certain quests when you exit the journal if the quest is trackable you will have a marker appear in your minimap

The game reads unpacked dzip files first and if none exist then reverts to the normally installed dzip files . Which is why when you try to update with a patch and unpacked dzip files are in the CookedPC folder you get the installed game version is incomplete or invalid argument .

You will need two files quickbms and scriptw2.txt you can find the working links to both files at the link http://www.gog.com/en/forum/the_witcher_2/how_to_unpack_the_pack0_dzip_for_modders/page1

Some things you might try make sure that you run as admin also check by right clicking gamesave properties to make sure that everything in the security tab is checked except for special permissions . If all is ok there then rename your gamesaves folder to gamesaves.old and create a new folder and name it to gamesaves and copy and paste (do not move) a few of the autosaves and or manual saves to it but not any quicksaves and then retry the game and see if saving works .

Do you mean that you can`t save at all or that you go too far and then the cutscene starts to play ?

If you have a backup of your CookedPC folder from the original install patched to 1.3 with no mods then yes it`s safe . Otherwise no , the CookedPC folder contains all necessary dzips for quests and additional dlcs , languages , etc . . It may be better just to do a reinstall of the game .

Have you checked for maybe a failing memory stick ? If you run Windows 7 it should have a built in memory tester or you can use memtest as an alternative .

After uninstalling the game make sure that where you had the game installed to for example C:/Program Files/witcher 2 That the Witcher 2 folder is no longer present and that the Witcher 2 folder is not in the documents area as well if you have saved games in there just back them up by copy and paste to another folder and then delete .

ok try updating manually How to manually patch the game 1. get the patch(es) first and foremost doesn`t matter in what order just as long as you have the ones you want or need . all versions of the patches are here http://en.thewitcher.com/patch1-3/ 2. disconnect from the internet 3. install the game 4. close the launcher or cd-key registration 5. apply patches in order 6. retry the game 7. reconnect to the internet

I use Avast and prefer it 10 to 1 over avg . even though you may not be able to exit avg you should be able to make an exception in it for Witcher 2 . I would prefer to have avg disabled before reinstalling the game however as antivirus programs running increases install time as well as may cause the game not to configure itself properly .

I haven`t found a way to toggle npc names . If you want to see lootable containers and places of power just press the Z key

Yeah they were fan made adventures and some are real good at least imo . I kinda enjoyed playing the adventures with no sound...didn`t have to worry with the headphones or speakers...just relax and play or if you want just fire up some favorite mp3`s and play to your hearts content or until the adventure is over .

That would be normal...and the wedding is not the only one that you will encounter with no voices . The best i can remember when CDPR released the toolset they had a contest and the winners got their adventure voiced with music and all others got an honorable mention ...but no voices .

I guess you made up for my last three runs where i haven`t even seen a madness mutagen . :thumbsup: The last two on hard...dunno maybe not living right or something . lol

OK if you download the 1.4 patch from the link (it doesn`t require registration)and i take it you already have the relevant language pack. After the 1.4 finishes downloading then you need to create a new folder and place both the 1.4 patch and the language pack in this folder then run the 1.4 patch as administrator . Then update to the 1.5 patch then go to the Tages website and update by clicking on the 5.5 toward the bottom of the page and then remove the Tages driver . http://www.en.thewitcher.com/the-witcher/1/ http://www.tagesprotection.com/main.htm?page=minimum.htm For the minimum requirements error you will need to go to your witcher/system folder and locate the witcher exe and right click and send to desktop , then on the new shortcut right click and select properties and in the shortcut tab in the target line and to the right outside the quotation mark type exactly (space)-dontForceMinReqs and click apply and ok and you should be good to go . I`ve attached a pic with the witcher exe to show how it should look .

Might be time to run a disc check on the "C" to rule out any bad sectors .
