Every time new people join the forum and play the game, or when people return to the game from an absence or have to reinstall for whatever reason, there is often a post about where to get the patches. So, I put together the following list of patches to help people in those situations:

very nice Armand! Maybe now we can get BruceBo to copy it and add as sticky.
Then the next debate
2 ways of doing it: Install 1.02/1.05 then 1.07 then the nvidia & conditions fixes or 1.07 then nvidia/conditions since 1.02/1.05 is supposed to be in 1.07.
I've done it both ways and works, only time I had problem was with old Intel card and needed 1.02 for sound issuse.

TYVM Armand!! This was huge help.

[ErnieB]

Links to 1.02/1.05/1.07 patches from Links Corner are no longer valid.

1.07 patch can be found at the Links Country Club.

Links for patches 1.02 / 1.05 / 1.07 have all been updated.

It works just fine, Armand.

I get an error message when I try to install the patch??

[Armand]

You haven't really given us anything to go on, but here are a couple of thoughts that might help .....

1. Make sure your download is the actual EXE file and not a shortcut, weblink, URL, or anything else.
2. Make sure that you "point" the patch to the correct directory when you install it. That is, make sure the path that comes up when you run it is where your Links 2003 is installed. The default that pops up should be correct, but it's always good to check.
3. You may need to run the patch with administrative privileges so the patch can actually update files in the C:\Program Files directory. I don't think this is required, but it's possible.

If these don't help, then we need much more specific information on the error message you are seeing:
What does the error message say?
When does the message pop up at you?

If the above tips do help, please post back as to what sorted out your issue.
