Click to expand... No you dont need previous patch, but me when i did it, i did a clean install. it mean i remove previous patch, deinstall game, then i install game and patch it. then defrag. you can remove previous patch if any ( i dont think it is a must but it is better) with add/suppress programm. Iam not very good at trouble shooting tecnhnical problem. maybe wait for another opinion.
