I apologize folks, either it's been cleared up or this was a false alarm. I've been saving and extracting all downloaded files, which I'm supposing fuddled the patch. Everything's been installed in order, and it seems to be working perfectly.

Again I apologize for jumping to conclusions and the melodramatic alarm, and thanks both of yall for your patience.

Alright, I'm going to uninstall everything, then reinstall the games, the first patch, and then attempt to redownload the TOB patch.

I apologize if I was a bit vague in my explanation. I have a full install of BG1, TotSC, BG2 and TOB, along with the full patch for BG1. I've also installed BGT without any BG2 bioware patch, because whenever i attempt to extract the downloaded zip file, i can take out everything but the setup.exe application.

I've deleted the files and redownloaded them twice, which did'nt help, as well as trying the original BG2 patch which ended up being all funkified too.

I'm able to play the game, but to talk to anyone as I said I generally have to quick save and reload up to 5 times, and if there is another way to fix this other than the bioware patch, please let me know as I personally havent been able to find any solutions to this.

Now I have'nt yet lost hope because I happen to be a software dumbanus , but if my only option is to slug my way through reloads until some mystical fix pops up in the patch please let me know.
