I just tried something else. It occurred to me that as I had not yet got very far in the game, it might be just as well to delete all my saves and start again, what with having patchd to 1.5 since starting. I thought maybe my savegames had got bugged. Also, rather than starting the game from the launcher on the desktop, I asked the game to run from the Witcher.exe, another tip that I had picked up on this forum. I gave myself a good half hour of play and then decided to try and save and quit.Sshh...whisper it who dares, but it seems to be working. Did not crash on save at all. Running on highest settings too.
Hello,I have a Problem, I can´t start The witcher, because it crashes when Iw ant to start. It starts and for 2 Second it appears a Blackscreen and than It crash. I don´t have a Desktop Icon. And in "all programms"I can´t find it. I only can do it when i search on my Harddrive. I use Vista and Im Overpass the System maximum Requirtments. I tried everything from that one Thread witch gives you Tips. I only had Problems with the first Tip becuase iam sure that I have Vista Service Pack 1pls Help me
Can't really help since I'm really not all that technical, however i can try to bump you into the right direction:Read this:http://witcher.wikia.com/wiki/Getting_tech_help_on_the_forumRun PCwizard and attach the log.Hopefully somebody else will be able to make sense of it.Also check if it is in the actually installed (don't know in Vista, XP has "Add or Remove Programs") and try a de-install and then install again.
I done it now that it works:1.) Install "The Witcher"2.) Patch to 1.53.) goto C:/program files/The Witcher/System/ and rightclick on "Witcher.exe" and Select "propertys" Run on Windows XP service Pack 2 and make a check at "start in Solution 640x480"4.) double click at "Witcher.exe" and hope that it starts.5.) When it starts have fun^^

Hi! I bought the Enhanced Edition and it crashes after 5-15 mins of playing. Sometimes, it reboots the whole system. .I am running Vista Ultimate SP2, with a Intel Pentium Dual Core 2,66 GHz processor, a nVidia 8800 GTS with 640 MB, 4GB of RAM. I also have all the latest video and sound drivers. The game is patched to 1.5.I have tried running the game in compatibility mode and as an administrator. The game still crashes. I have attached the PC WIzard scan and the error file from the Wticher SYSTEM folder. Hope it helps.Any help will be kindly appreciated.Thank you.
