Only way your going to do it is to back up your save games, and reinstall the game then update.


A lesson to people, back up your original exe before using a no-cd, this way its easy to copy back.
Can you explaine to me what is CRC?

CRC = Cyclic Redundancy Check

To make a long story short and easy: If the checksum (calculated from the file) doesn't match, the file will be recognized as being faulty.

thanks for the help anyway.. but i've discovered the problem myself..
I was trying to install the us update instead of the uk update.( i have uk version..)
but thanks anyway

one more thing: I put a 3.0 crack and but now i hae no sound in the game..
although the settings are ok..

can someone give me a crack for 3.0 ver?
or maybe that problem doesnt have to do with the crack..
thanks
