Default Re: What is the order to install both winspmbt and winspww2
1) Firstly you install the base game - in your case the CD download.
you now have version 1 installed

2) Now, install the consolidation patch
you now have the 1.0 game updated to version 5(WW2) or 6(MBT)

3) Then install the latest update patch (v7 for MBT, v6 for WW2)
You are now patched up to the current version

Installing a later version first will result in the earlier versions installed after that nuking any later ones...

Also - if you have Windows vista, seven, or 8 then read the sticky post "Windows Vista and Seven installation" pinned at the top of the MBT and WW2 main forums, if you have not already done so. (Essentially you require to install outside the traditional /program files/ folder hierarchy due to changes Microsoft made post windows XP with the introduction of UAC)
