Uninstall the 1.03 patch so I can re d/l the game off of DVD and patch it to latest patch?

You don't need to uninstall the 1.03 patch. Just install the latest patch and you're good to go.

If you want to start with a completely fresh install, you have to uninstall and reinstall the game.

Thats is what I trying to do, I have sh4 off the pc and deleted everything that went with it and tried to reinstall and it comes up with " you have uninstall 1.03 to install1.0" and then I would put in the latest patch. I did windows explorer search and it comes up with nothing for sh4, but on "add or remove programs" there is a 10.61 mb thingie of sh4, tried to remove and I get error message "sh4 has encountered a problem and needs to close" Is there a utility or program somewhere to get this off?

Good one, aanker, that thread needs to be stickificated somewhere (edit

oooooooooooops it already is

)
@Torp III : Guess it wouldn't hurt to ask what operating system you're running, too, since Vista seems to be a recurring problem and it sure sounds like you have a fouled up uninstall.

PC is XP Pro 3.2, Pent. D 250 gig, hd 4 gig ram, Nvidia G Force 7300 GT w/ 512 mb ddr2, 600 watt p/s
I took sh4 off the pc at least 6 months ago, so doing a restore point at this time is not likly for upgrading everything from that point on will take a month to do. What happens if I deleted the reg key which may have happened cause I wanted to put on C drive directly (c:/ sh4) intead of programs file. The thing is, I am running sh3/gwx w/ a bunch of other mods for sh3 and no problems from the get go. Would d/ling the game w/ latest patch from direct 2 drive overwrite or still say I have to uninstall 1.03?
