Thanks for the tip chrisssss, but WHAT THE #### does memory speed have to do with a patch exe not running?!?
I am also a pissed-off customer with an original virgin 1.20 OFP bought in Canada that refuses to install to 1.30. No error messages, just a couple seconds of hd work, then -nothing. I've also done a clean reinstall and re dl'd the patch several times, but no dice- it's pooched. My 1.20 game works PERFECTLY and it's a sweeeet game, but waaaaaaaaa!!!!! I want the upgrade. BIS gave me a answer today saying please ask Codemasters, so i just forwarded now. We'll see.
Incidently, I sent them a DXdiag.txt file to pore over; we'll see if they blame me for their s**t code.
