Trouble loading the new, new patch

Darwin,
Try installing the 1.19 patch again. Maybe that will work.

I knew one of these days my procrastinating ways would pay off.

Did you keep a copy of your v1.19 files. I created a second SE4 directory before I downloaded v1.27a and simply copied all of the files in the v1.19 SE4 root directory and replaced all of the 1.27a files. Then I executed v1.27b with no problems....

I remember that I backed up my hard drive a while back ago So I'm good to go now, works great. And then I found my CD (irony) So I did a clean reinstall anyway.

Nope not a pirate (err um at least not from MM) still have my SE2 floppy in my desk drawer. And I can quote my SE3 registration code (photographic memory helps for that)

Wait a minute. You mean I can't just load the NEW 1.27 patch over the old 1.27 patch?

How the HELL did they manage to do that to us?????

All you have to do is re-install the cd game over the files and then install the patch. You do not have to un-install the game.

What Dracus said Possum...worked for this ol' fart.
