Re: Update error... help needed
You probably don't want to hear this, but I had the same problem and the only way I could update was to reinstall.  Maybe they could mail you the CD???

Re: Update error... help needed
Did you mod any of the original datafiles?
If so, try getting the unmodded files to set your game back to original.
You could also try gold patch 2 before patch 3...

Re: Update error... help needed
I had the same issue with this patch on one of my systems. A fresh install of SE4g fixed it.

Re: Update error... help needed
Forgot to add that renaming the original install directory will preserve all of the downloads that you have collected. Just paste them into the fresh install after you apply the patch.

Re: Update error... help needed
Reinstalling over an old install does not delete any added files. You do not need to uninstall first, just reinstalling is sufficient (in my experience, at any rate).
