Default Patch will not install

Okay.......I download 1.31 patch and update my BF1942. When I load up the game and join a server. An error reads WRONG VERSION!! Want to update? In the main screen on the bottom left it says 1.25. I reinstall my battlefield, then install Road To Rome, which updates to 1.25. I install the patch 1.31 and still get this error. Can any one help?

Thx

Uninstall again.

Start -> Run -> Regedit

Delete keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942 XPack 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942: The Road to Rome
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Battlefield 1942
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Electronic Arts\EA Games\Battlefield 1942 The Road to Rome

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Battlefield 1942

Reinstall BF, reinstall RTR, repatch 1.31

If you still get errors repeat the above and redownload the 1.31 patch from a different source.

Edit: Some of those keys might go missing after you uninstall, just delete the ones that are left.
