Witcher 2 Problem Fixes - Patch error, Slow FPS, Crash

Witcher 2 is a recent game that is really hitting the trends off by giving us brilliant visuals. The game is simply awesome on even the lowest settings. You will definitely kiss your PC when you see the sun rays passing through you and other objects. But this freakishly awesome game is getting many number of errors which are almost all easy to fix.

Patch Errors: Once the game is installed you might have to download a patch that is done automatically, but the real problem starts when the patch is installed. It might rise some Appdata errors or incomplete and invalid game errors. First of all locate the downloaded patch file, it is in the "The Witcher 2" folder in you "My Documents". The fix: try installing the patch in a user account that is not password protected but also has administrator rights, try installing the patch from within the game folder. If all fails, try re-installing the game under the directory name "Witcher 2" and then running the patch setup.

Low FPS: This is most common among Nvidia card users. It seems that the Nvidia 3D vision drivers are interfering with the games performance heavily thus resulting in a very low FPS. I was only able to get about 5 FPS even in the lowest settings and lowest resolution. But after uninstalling my 3D vision drivers, I was able to get about 20-30 FPS even in the highest settings, more than enough for playing this beautiful game. Also disable ubersampling if you want to get even more FPS, remember ubersampling reduces the FPS to half of what you get without it. The game rocks well on my core2quad, GTS 250 with 1440x900 resolution, so I guess an average card is enough to play the game with the high settings.

Crash: If your game gets random crashes to the desktop and your running a 32 bit Windows 7 or Windows Vista, and having around or above 3 GB RAM, you will need to enable 3GB switch to fix it. To enable the 3GB fix, open command prompt in the administrator mode and type the following command, " bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVa 3072 " and hit enter. Then restart your computer and start the game to see it run without any crashes. To turn the 3GB switch back off, type, " bcdedit /deletevalue IncreaseUserVa " and restart the computer.

As for the game, the game is really wonderful game, so enjoy it....!!!
