Here is what the official Bioware page has to say about the problem:

Problem with "chitin.key" file. First try re-patching the game. Failing that, try reinstalling.

I see on their Known Issues page that under some circumstances, you may need to do a manual uninstall of BG2, and they give directions for so doing.

Failing that, they do list a tech support email address.

Good luck.

P.S. I didn't see that you said it specifically, but have you installed the most recent official patch?

I cant see how misplacing the files would cause any damage. But the fact that this problem appeared when you installed that happy group patch is suggestive. To remove it, delete the files listed in the readme from your override folder.

It possible, although I doubt it, that happy group overrode a file from another mod. In fact, I dont doubt it, but I doubt it would cause this problem.

The fact that Bg cant find a file when you try and uninstall it is more likely the source of your trouble. Which file is it complaining about?

it dosent specify the excat file but its says that it is missing an support file..
