Answer 1

save your saved games, they are in your documents folder, then reinstall the game and replace the saved games.

Answer 2

You downloaded a currupted file, and you have to move the downloads to another folder. If you don't want to lose them all, slowly add a couple of them at a time, untill your game crashes, and you should be able to narrow down which file it is. It's a very legnthy process, but it's better than having to redownload everything.

Answer 3

oh, its so nice to know that this isn't only happening to me. you need to delete all your downloads. sorry, but this is the only way i could get it to work. delete and then go to your recycling bin and empty it so they are no longer on your comp.
