I played about thirty hours to get to chapter 2, taking my time and doing all the quests, running around and doing nothing but running around, etc.

Then my grandfather looked at pr0n on my computer from some weird site and got me a hell of a virus, and I had to reformat.

So I did it again, taking my time, logging another thirty hours.

Then my PSU in the pre-built computer I was using went out, along with the GPU and HDD, so I ended up having a friend build me a new computer. I'd rather not log another 30 hours in the game again to get back to chapter 2.

Does anyone have a save file from the start of Chapter 2?

Thank you. Swear to god, my googling only came up with friggin equivalents for TW2.

I had your same situation and that saved me. Dropbox-linking your saves will save your life.

Thanks, guys. You're lifesavers.
