and i keep getting unable to start game service initialization failed 0x0175dcbb

I guess some of the expansion pack you downloaded was not in the same place?

//EDIT

Helper edit: please use the "edit" button on your post if you want to add something. Otherwise the only thing I would be busy with here is to clean up all the bumps and double-posts.
