Download Problem :(

warheat1990 · 06-04-2012, 08:34 AM

hi, so I'm currently downloading the Witcher 2 EE, I have 384kbps connection so I usually just download around 800-1GB in a day and resume it tomorrow. Couple weeks ago when it reached 5.8/16GB, I resumed the download like usual and it starts from 0/16GB again. So, I was like w/e and keep downloading, and it happens for 2nd time when it reached around 5.6/16GB. I'm downloading again right now, and it is already at 6GB/16GB so I guess my previous download is gone. It is so frustrating, It is on my library for almost a month now, and I haven't been to play it :\

PS. Sorry for bad english.

The system requirements say that you need a filesystem that supports files larger than 8GBs.

So, if you're using an older Windows or filesystem like FAT32, the game won't install. Also, try setting the Download server to somewhere near you so the client doesn't try to optimize for you. Finally, make sure Steam Cloud is turned on and let the client sync everytime you exit it or shutdown windows.

Try downloading it from GOG instead:
