I have a annoying problem. I have recently dug Jagged Alliance 2 Gold edition out of the closet, because there simply aren't any good games being made anymore and wanted to play something I knew was worth my time. But since I last played it, I've bought a new computer... With Vista pre-installed. So I made a pot of coffee and prepared myself for an epic battle between man and machine, the price being getting JA2 to work.

Turns out I didn't even manage to drink the first cup before I claimed victory over the wicked machine. Put in CD -> click install -> install -> launch, no problems (I must admit, I was a little disapointed that Vista gave up so easily). Rather confused I started to look for a patch and sure enough, there is the 1.12 Gold patch. But it seems that Vista had lured me into a false sense of security, because I can't install the patch. I can the same error every time: "We are unable to locate Jagged Alliance 2 Gold on your computer." or something to that effect. But I have installed it, played it and it works. But not the patch? That's a low blow, even for Vista.

I'm not one to give up a good game that easily, so I've googled for a couple of days, but I can't find a single post, blog, comment or anything else from anyone else, who has the same problem. Not one. So I was kind of hoping that one of the gurus here could help?

Oh, and something else. I'm a purist, so I'm not installing 1.13. It has some nice features, but it also changes the balance, adds items/mercs and so forth and I don't like that sort of thing.

Thank you for any and all help you can give me Smile
