I'll assume that you don't know anything then

!
A) There are
seven patch files. All patches require to be installed in
ascending order. 1.1 -> 4.5. So firstly, download them
all to a folder on your hard drive. (Someday we will have to make a consolidated patch)
B) Read the "Windows Vista and Windows Seven Installation" sticky thread message #1 for the details. Especially read "Step 1".
B.1) i.e. you will have to first install the game as described there, changing the installation path from the default "Program Files" to something as described.
B.2) Then run each patch installer 1.1 through 4.5
in turn changing the path to the one you installed the game under. Patch files are self-installing executables - double click on the patch file to run it.
