I just can't get the EE to work. I really need help.

So I've gotten to the point where I don't even want to try anymore but I really want to play this game and I need someone's help to do it now. I've downloaded all the patches, and now I'm trying to install the EE. But every time I use the "downloader" to get the EE near the beginning it says "Lost connection" even though my internet connection is just fine. I've been told to just download it manually by downloading and installing different parts of the EE patch. But then, after I start to install it it says the launcher is a corrupted file even though it works fine when I try to start the game. It seems no matter what I just can't get this game to get the EE properly which makes no sense to me since I can play the game perfectly fine as of right now. I really need help with this guys, I have no idea what to do next.

Totally feel your pain, man. It's almost quarter to one in the morning and I'm still downloading individual patches to try and make this work. It keeps giving me a pl0w.2string error and says the file is corrupted. If I have manually loaded every part of the EE - what can this possibly be???

I don't know man, it's driving me nuts. I run Administrator mode every time too, and it still doesn't help anything.

If you are still having trouble then you Might try downloading it from GOG, it was a lot easier, less headache and you'd be surprised how fast it downloads. I never got a time out. All the patches are included in the EE at GOG so you can just download the thing and install it from there.

Yes if you really cannot get the EE patch to work no matter what, then just register your CD-Key on GOG.com and get a free digital backup copy of the full game which you can download. Itl be all patched up to EE so you wont have any troubles patching as there will be no need.

I might have to do that, even if it is an unnecessary pain in the rear. Thanks for the advice.

Just out of interest. What's the size of the download if you get the free backup through GOG?

There's MD5 checksums for the GOG.com download in this forum as a sticky, I think.
