Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Technical Problems "Not the good game version" with v1.41 patch

Hello,

I'm running Beyond Divinity version 1.100A and i've tried downloading all 3 English version patches, even the most recent one 1.41 gives me the error message "This is not the good game version" upon attempting to install, can anyone explain this or help if possible?

Thanks,
Tericia

If you are using Windows XP, did you install the game from an account with administrative privileges?
The patch checks the registry for the current version and install path.

I think this will work on XP, but I'm not sure (it does under Win9x);
If you are comfortable with computers and tweaking stuff manually, click on Start | Run, type in regedit and hit enter. This will/should bring up the registry editor, where any changes made are done immediately and without an undo function, with possible serious consequences. Expand the tree HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\LarianStudios\BeyondDivinity on the left side of the program, and check that the listed path and version are correct. You could try lowering the version number.

Using Win98. And I checked regedit and there appears to be no LarianStudios folder in the Software section under the Local_Machine heading, guess i'll try reinstalling after I make a quick backup of my savegame file <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
