I moved your topic to the core patch subforum as this is where it seems to belong. Check the stickies in this subforum: it contains a link where you can manually download the core patches from. That should bypass any problems with download.exe . I'd advice you to run patcher.exe with the same compatibility and admin mode settings after the download Smile

the terminated instance i am guessing is me closing it

but the black screen just does not go any further...done enough restarts and tried all the capibility versions still nothing. i know it can take a while to load but if its 5 mins there is something not right! i have put it in windowed mode so u can make it out rather then a black square Smile
