Problem with "disc 0 need data4.cab"

Problem with "disc 0 need data4.cab"

Hi guys. I bought yesterday the game from Nuuvem (digital download) and after almost 12 hours downloading it... I had that problem trying to install the game. I probed with the "minilauncher" from the site and, after that, tried install it directly from the "setup" file.

Waste of time. Neither way worked for me.

By the way, I sent an email (from "maltrain@gmail.com") trying to have a CD-Key in any case.

But I have the game already on my PC and I want to know if it's a fast solution.

I use Windows 7 64 Bits, by the way, if it's useful.

PLEASE HELP.

Sounds like you didn`t get the full download . Is your game Steam redeemable ?

EDIT : What is the size of your downloaded files ?

No. It's DRM Free and without key activation.

And I downloaded all using a "minilauncher" from the site. I have 8,51GB on my PC.

Look:



Is that right? Or I need something else?

Others have said Nuuvem's The Witcher 2 is not redeemable on Steam, but it should be redeemable for a GOG backup copy. GOG's downloader may be more reliable than Nuuvem's, which is known to be a bit flaky. Either way, you need a very stable Internet connection, because you're going to be downloading 10GB or more.

If you have a key, see http://www.gog.com/en/witcher2/backup/
If that site doesn't work for you, or you don't have a key, see http://www.thewitcher.com/backup/
If you want to know about how redeeming your copy of The Witcher 2 for a GOG copy works, read this thread: http://en.thewitcher.com/forum/index.php?/topic/28691-cd-keys-for-gog-backup-copies/
If you're reading this and don't know what Nuuvem is, see http://www.steamgifts.com/forum/2t6Uz/nuuvem-guide-for-non-portuguese-speakers

Your title says that it needs data4.cab . But there is no data4.cab file in your download which is why i said it sounded like that you didn`t get the full download . Is this the TW2EE or just regular TW2 . If TW2EE it should be much larger .

That looks like a straight copy of the disks. Reinforcing what *Tommy* said, the missing "data4.cab" and the 8.51GB size sound like you did not get a complete download.

GOG has a better download service than Nuuvem, and I would make the effort to get the GOG backup copy. Most people who do this, do not regret doing so.

I bought "Enhanced EditioN" but you can see the page like this:



I think you must install the "update patch" after...

Well... at last, best option is waiting for a backup copy from GoG? :(

I hope the team could give me one today... :(

See that "Download..." line? It gives the size as 14.69 GB. That's about right for TW2EE; the exact size depends on the language packs that are included. Your download seemed to have given up at 8.51 GB. That's a long way from complete.

If Nuuvem's downloader won't give you a complete download, wait for GOG. Trust me on this, GOG's download operations are first-class and well-provisioned.

Right... it's a shame. I'll try to download it ALL AGAIN until the team send me a GoG key.

Thanks for your attention, friend. :)

Sometimes broken downloads can be the result of cookies not set correctly in your browser or time not synchronized on your computer . Also browsers usually have a set limit that can be downloaded . Does Nuuvem use a downloader application ? If they do then then try it .

Right. The first file "Download_The_Witcher_2__UK_D.exe" is, in fact, a minilauncher that download the files and install the game. And give you the option of keeping the files on your PC.

But that didn't worked the first time. Neither from the "setup" directly.

Well, I'll try all over again... 20 hours more... :(

I hope I can get my GoG key before that for starting from there...

Well, finally, my problem was this (my email to Nuuvem support):

"I downloaded again and this time I followed all the process... look, the "minilauncher" download the 14GB of the game. And in the last moment I made a capture:

http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/9163/13246849.jpg

You can see 14 files with more than 1GB each one of them... so, right.

But, I noticed the "launcher" didn't unzip all the content in the insider and, even worst, when the download reach to 100% all those files dissapear and only left what is inside the "Installer" folder:

http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/8049/27740401.jpg

As you can see, there are a lot of missing files and GB !!!

So, when I try to install it, I received this:

http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/5548/37610463.jpg

I'm pretty tired for this. I've download the game twice (40GB!!!) and, well... tha launcher didn´t work.

I need direct links, a key for GoG or something, please..."

Their answer (really fast, in any case) was to redeem the GoG code and well, I did it yesterday.

But... WHY 72 HOURS!!!

Jajaja... too much time. XD
