Capitalism II - fatal problem with patch
I have installed Capitalism II, version 1.00 (as sold) on my PC. No problem - game installed and then ran.

I encountered what seemed to be a bug in the tutorial - I couldn't select any products for my fourth or fifth supermarket.



I then downloaded the patch, version 1.01, from Ubisoft's site. No problem. I then installed the patch. I then attempted to start the game. with the CD-ROM in the drive.

I then obtained the error message:

Cannot locate the CD-ROM Please insert the correct CD-ROM, select OK and restart application



I then uninstalled and reinstalled the program, version 1.00 as before, and was able to start it successfully.

I then reinstalled the patch. Error message as before.



Has anyone else encountered these problems?
The patch is unusable!

I haven't had that problem...but then again, I don't recall ever downloading any patch.

Sounds like they "improved" their copy protection software as part of the patch. Neverwinter had similar problems with one of their patches.
