Real sorry to harp on this but this doesnt make sense I have tried patching with 1.09 right from version 1.04 and after the 1.06 patch and and cant get 1.09 to work. install wizard extracts files and then i go to setup screen. When i hit next a warning popup says there is not enough space on drive. It says "you have chosen to install 13 mb, your drive only has 375 mb of room, Please free up space or change target location" then when I click ok , warning wont close almost makes me think patch is loaded with a trojan anyone else experience this, I got it from blackhole this is frustrating as hell

Defrag your HDD just before installing the patch - reboot and try to install the patch. If it doesn`t work, re-install F1-2K to a different Dir and try installing the new patch to the fresh F1-2K install. Btw, You can also ask for help on the High Gear F1-2000 Forum... I`m sure you`ll find someone there who`s come across your prob and solved it... as I think your problem is a common one.

Btw..... another poster gave some advice in another thread for your same prob, and I strongly recommend you follow it if your system has many programs running in the background after bootup. "Try re-booting and then immediately shutting down all running processes (using CTRL-ALT-DEL) except for Explorer and Systray before applying the patch. This usually works for me, when I encounter this type of problem." All the best, Lorne ------- Bengal <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
