Help! Can't seem to patch SH3 to 1.4b (Vista)

tiger_tim_34 · 07-10-08, 09:49 AM

I've logged on as the main (full) Administrator, applied Starforce patches, removed them, removed SH3 (deleted all remaining directories and registry files), re-installed it... ALL DAY. But every time I apply the DVD (Europe) 1.4b patch it appears to install successfully but then the "1.4" doesn't appear when running the game.

Naturally, GWX2.0 is highly unimpressed with this and refuses to install because, it tells me, I'm still running SH3 1.1.

Any ideas? I've used the magic 'Search' button and found various threads of advice, but most of them assume patch 1.4b installs with no problem.
