There are two versions of the patches, one that is US and one that is European (because there are two versions of SHIII . . . yep, you guessed it: one US and one European). You have to use the correct version patch for the game you installed.

It seems to me that you might try to install the wrong patch to the version of the game you have. There are a couple of patches IIRC.

I had the exact same problem but I solved it by using windows to search for all SH3 files. the standard removal process misses some files. Once I had manually deleted all these the update worked like a charm.
