Because sometimes items effects one game and not another - just like how my copies of Mass Effect crashed until I removed a background task. It was not Mass Effect, it was a faulty mouse driver.
And I do not buy that it is The Witcher. Have you removed TAGES? Have you actualy looked into any issues? It seems to me that you are jumping to blame The Witcher without any evidance other than "I think so and my other games work, thus it is the issue." Coem back when you've actualy done some footwork. It is also true that I cannot recall any problems like yous on The Witcher technical forums -somewhere I try to go regularly-, another item I find odd.
TAGES issues?
if that means it kept asking for my CD when it was in the drive then yes.
Yes, that was a TAGES issue. Luckly the newest patch removes all traces of the DRM -provided The Witcher was the only game using TAGES on your PC- and makes it playable without the disc.
True. But the main issue was settled then, or at least it should have been, and it lost much of its power - something that is now coming back... Ironicaly, or maybe not, many of the States that are now passing these items are ex-Slave Sates.
Yes, I have unless it tosses away the normal Star Wars dogma (id est KotOR II).
Really?
Nope. Most of those "about 200" have been **** and thus any new games are likely to be **** as well.
The BSoD is not The Witcher's fault, nor is your loading time problems - more likely you have a bunch of other programs ****ing your system up. The crashes would also be symptom of that.
Nope. It requires the .dll to be there unless you mod it however, although that's easy. And the Steam version is no different - it, in fact, has more DRM than the non-Steam version (you can play without installing SecuROM due to an interesting little quirk in the system Bethesda went with).
