So I am quite computer illiterate. I DL'd the hak and the 7zip. When I try and open the hak it asks me to choose a folder to install 7zip, I'm confused . Any help?
My bet is that you mixed up the 7zip installer and the hak pack. If you want to extract 7z files you need to install 7zip first.
Ugh, this is getting frustrating . I DL'd itsacademy one. And i did save it to my computer, though its not saying amia_hak.7z, just amia_hak. The file has the 7zip logo on it and when i double click the file it asks me if i want to install 7zip. Not sure if i answered what you asked.

... After saving the file to your desktop or whatever folder you like, Right Click on the file. It will open a menu with Open on top and other options immediately below with dropdown arrows. If you have 7z available, it will be on that list. If so, hover over 7z, and chose the 'extract to...' option and browse to the Hak folder in NWN and send the files there to be extracted.
If 7z, RAR, ZipGenius, or any of the unzipping programs are not on the list, go to the link in Amia Hak on the sidebar and down load 7z from there. You may need to re-download the hak, as it didn't want to extract if the hak was downloaded before installing 7z on one of my machines.

Open up 7Zip the program. Navigate to the amia_hak.7z (or whatever its called), within' the 7zip program. Double click on the 7z file, or if you downloaded one of the split files, double click on the one with 1 on the end. Extract the file.
Do not use open with, or right click and use "extract as". The likelyhood of you have winrar already installed, which will have hijacked the spot 7zip uses in the right click menu, is highly likely. It will just cause confusion. Better to just open the program and work within' it.
And if your downloading the split file, for the love of god, don't use another archiving program no matter what the other no-it-alls are saying. You'll likely get a corrupt file message when it's not corrupted. Just use the 7zip program.

So, I was motivated enough to try re-download the 10 MB chunks again, but after finally getting it I get the message "Can not open file 'C:\NeverwinterNights\NWN\hak\amia_hak.7z' as archive". That's trying to open it and extract with 7z.
And also 'C:\NeverwinterNights\NWN\hak\amia_hak.7z The archive is either in unkinown format or damaged.
Frustrating

Had a dream last night that the Hak worked, so I got up this morning and tried the full download and it has worked! It only took six hours on 4KBps but ah well, over and done with now.
