After all these months of high expectation, the upgrade DOES NOT WORK:
message when installing:
GPL.EXE is not a valid previous version and could not be upgraded
I have version 1.0.0.0
I have even reinstalled it (*** install with no mods)
This upgrade file downloaded quickly, have I got it all (783Kb)?
I live in UK - does this make a difference?
HELP! HELP! please guys (and gals) HELP!!!!!!!

Get the Original GPL.exe from your CD. You probably have installed
something inside the EXE previously, like the Honda/Cooper fix per example.

What could my version be? I bought it in Finland. It is working well,
I only have to remember to put the CD there...
But why should I use any "UK" version, or a "US" version? I am not (and
never would like even to become!) either English or American!
A good advice to Sierra and Papyrus: Do not forget that you do have
(happy!) clients also outside US/UK! Many of us can even handle
your language (it is really an exception to meet any native English
speaker who can talk or write any other language!)

Are you wondering why there isn't a localized _Finnish_ version? Geez ...
No need to get***y ...

Thanks for all advice,
Problem still there with UK patch. But I discovered that it was the NoCD patch
installed previously that was causing the problem.
