Can't install 1.04 Patch

May 9, 2008 2:03:40 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

When I try to install the 1.04 patch I get the following error: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Stardock\Drengin.net\sins.   

Please make sure you have the game installed.

This update installation will now exit."

 

I haven't had any problems playing the tutorials up to this point, but the update seems to think I haven't installed the game. I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate X64, and the game is installed on an external SATA 3.0GB Hard drive.

If the registry keys are missing, try reinstalling the game.

Well when did you get it? You probably downloaded the latest version.

the original poster said he had it installed on a external hard drive.
Had the system been recently formatted or had a reg cleaner or something used, might have removed the key hence the update dont work.

Or just re-download the game through SD.net for the latest fully patched game.
