Neverwinter Nights 2 Mysteries of Westgate Download

The title basically tells it. I just bought Neverwinter Nights Complete, a pack that comes with all of NWN and NWN2, including the kingmaker premium module for NWN and the MoW premium module for NWN2. MoW was, in fact, the sole reason I bought this pack, since I already owned all the expansions for NWN and NWN2 (except for kingmaker, which I had never bothered with).

ANYway. After the long installation process, I started up the game and tried to start a new campaign in Mysteries of Westgate, and got the error message "Neverwinter Nights 2 was unable to load this module after authenticating it. Please reinstall your premium module." I have already tried repairing the installation, and it accompished nothing other than wasting an hour. Game version is 1.023. I'm using Windows 7, 64 bit.

I have attempted to look at the westgate.key file, after reading some comments elsewhere about it, but windows doesn't know how to read it, and notepad just displays a paragraph of unintelligible garbage characters.

Anyone have any ideas? I should mention, this pack does not allow MoW to be installed by itself, so far as I can tell. Reinstallation is all-or-nothing, and that's an hour-long process I'd rather not go through when I have no evidence that it will actually fix the problem.
