Default Re: latest upgrades don't run

Your old style CD base game installer will have installed to the shrapnel folder in /program files/ if you did not change anything (and from your problem, I suspect you simply ran the installers with the default paths).

The patch installers use the C:\Shrapnel Games\The Camo Workshop\winSPWW2 path as the default now post XP.

Your described problem comes from not changing the paths of the patch files to point to the same directory the game was installed to. So the patch data will have gone to the new folder, not the old style one you installed to.

Since you have the base game in program files, and have an old XP machine then your best bet is to run the patches once again, but point them to where you have the game. You can use the navigator feature in the installer to do that
