Fails to load?

Well ... i was playing the EE happily for a few daysbut recently (after i got to outskirts of vizima) i tried to load my game, and the bar would just go to the end and stop...then there would be some sounds playing, as though the game had loaded successfully, but the loading screen persisted...I can do nothing!all my saved games do this when loading! So i cannot play! I did nothing to provoke this....it was working fine , and now none of my saves will load . Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? :-[

Q: i get "Cannot load module. invalid IFO file", what can i do?A: The issue is the one known as the IFO module error, you get that error when trying to to change zone (mostly in chapter 3). To fix this, you need to make some manipulations, first, if you are under XP, go to my computer, get on your C drive, open the tools menu -> Folder options, View tab. In there, look for "Hidden files and folders", click on show hidden files and folder. Next look for "Hide protected operating system files", uncheck it.If you are under Vista, go to the control panel and look for folder option, the rest of the procedure is the same : View tab. In there, look for "Hidden files and folders", click on show hidden files and folder. Next look for "Hide protected operating system files", uncheck it.Now, start the game, andA: load your savegame. Once it is loaded, press alt tab to get out of the game, go to the following folder: XP: C:\Documents andXP: Settings\(your user name)\Local Settings\Application Data\The Witcher\temp\saves\(name of your savegame)Vista: C:\user\(your user name)\Application Data\witcher\temp\save\(the name of your save game)In that folder, delete all the files that ends with the .sav extension.Go back in the game, move around a bit, save your game and reload it. The problem should be fixed.
