Author Topic:   Unable to install Patch 3.0

I have the Asia-Pacific version. I have tried both the US and UK patches but I get the same error with both. "File not found" and then the patching terminates.
Is this an edition specific problem and if so, is an Asia-Pacific version of the patch going to be released?.

Check the EA Technical Support helpfile to see if you have the UK or US (it will say if it's the UK). Make sure you've got the right version of the patch. If that still doesn't work, delete the game from the HD, reinstall, and apply the patch immediately, even before running the game. This will ensure that everything is default (if it's hanging on a text file) and that no virus has had a opportunity to infect the exe (if it's hanging on terran.exe).
