1.) At first SH2 updated did not load a mission successfully, but gave the above error. I rebooted and tried again, and, a surprise-- it worked.
2) PA did the same thing,that is after seeing menus, trying to load, and going to screen blanker/error. but after cleaning the registry, junk files, defragging, and clearing old renamed SH2 game installs out of the hard disk entirely, it started working. Who knows why?
Now I need to install the PA patch. I'm nervous, hoping that the next step will cause no trouble.
Hitman, you were right, by following your instructions I was able to have the mod work. I am
very appreciative of your taking the time to help me out.
