Hi Darren!
Sound like a corrupt download. Maybe Paul has a better answer.

Darren, you evidently did not get the complete download. It is looking for data that did not get downloaded.
You'll have to try again. Be sure and use a good download program like Getright to make sure you get it all.

Well. I cannot download this patch too - the matrixgames download server is currently down and its speed too slow - BUT the version which is placed on gamesdomain HAS A REDUCED 30.3 MB NOR 31.2 MB!!! This why the error with disk II !! Please, ask the gamesdomain server for uploading not corrupted version of the patch!

I found the same thing happened to me last night, although, when I ran the program it indicated that I had Version 4.1. I went ahead and installed version 4.2 and it installed fine. I'm not sure why it asked for the disk when I installed 4.1? it still seems to have been installed onto my system OK.

Well... 7 hours of non corrupted download finished... Now all is fine...
With the corrupted version the game seems to work in normal way, whenever I have not tested it a lot (one file may be damaged)

I too have the same issue - and downloaded with GetRight - it listed as complete when downloaded from Games Domain. Is indeed their file corrupt?

Sounds like so - just compare the sizes of the Gamesdomain and Matrix versions...

It Is Indeed So - Using GetRight (Highly recommended free download) I verified that the Games Domain file lists as complete - but when I continued the download from the Matrix Site - I picked up an additional .8mb - since using GetRight it took 10 min. additional - my advice get GetRight and re-download from the Matrix site - it will prompt you to overwrite or continue your 4.1 file - choose continue!
