The patch checks the registry to find the install path, and will give that error if it doesn't find what it expects. In Windows XP, did you install the game from an account with administrative privileges? I assume so, since you didn't mention any problems with the copy protection. Have you used any registry compression or cleaning tools, that may have been a little too aggressive?
Raze I actually have had problems with the copy protection, which was why I downloaded the patch to try to see if that would solve the problem.
Did you need to type in a CD key during install? The Australian English version of the game requires a CD key, while the UK and North American English versions do not. There are also differences in the ratings, publishers, etc.
Nah, there wasn't any cd key when I installed the game, I also compared the rating on the box with other games I have [which I know have the Australian rating on them] and they were all different to the rating on Beyond Divinity, so I think I may have the American version or something, will I still be able to play it? It says its an ESRB rating [www.esrb.org], I'm not sure if thats an American rating or not...
