At one time you needed to reinstall the base game first. Did you install the base game first and then apply patches? Which version are you trying to run?

This error occurs because the executable file (.exe) is looking for the core game data files in its current directory and cannot find them.

It most commonly happens after applying a patch or a beta update (which places the new .exe in a subfolder like \Beta2\), or due to an incorrect shortcut path.

So as pbiggar said, please state what patches you have applied and in which sequence.

... and if its a beta also check for a beta2 folder for exe and dll.
