Indycar Racing 2 - patch?

I know this is an oldy, I just had to get it back out after being
dissapointed with MS's CPR. Anyway, I tried to run the patch for version
1.0.0 and it patched quite a few files, then died with an error that said
that a similar file had been found and that nothing would be updated.? I
did go into all of my track dirs and made sure that the .txt files were not
marked "read only". It's been a while since I had this program running,
could anyone give me the proper procedure for running the patch? Thanks!

You may need to do a fresh install, just to be sure all is intact.  FWIW, the
patch needed is ICR_102.EXE, and needs to be run (as you probably know) from
the main ICR2 directory.  With a fresh install (full, not partial), the patch
should work fine.

Note: Make sure to make backups of all your setups and carsets!

The other patches needed (if you're into painting) are the files for the ICR2
Paintkit (not patched with ICR_102).  The files are PATCHPKT.COM and
PKIT102.EXE.  You can download them from most sites, but here's a link to get
you going:

ICR_102.EXE:
http://www.simracing.com/downloads/pc/patches/sierra/icr_102.exe

PATCHPKT.COM:
http://www.simracing.com/downloads/pc/patches/sierra/patchpkt.com

PKIT102.EXE:
http://www.simracing.com/downloads/pc/patches/sierra/pkit102.exe

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Marc
