On Monday night, as I rode through a brief but fierce thunderstorm, my horse was struck by lightning and killed instantly. I have ordered a new mount from QM and it should arrive tomorrow...hopefully it has been trained and ready to ride to the front lines to continue the war. [:)]

If you haven't tried horse meat, then you don't know what ya'll are missing YUM YUM[:D]. Hope your new horse also has all of the games loaded on it also.

My new horse has arrived and seems to know his way to the front...I am up and "running" again.

Some help needed though...I tried to patch-up my Battleground Antietam game and it would not update, saying the original file could not be found. I know some of the old BG games will do this unless you delete certain files from the original install. Can anyone help me here?

Notes and Possible Error Messages when updating:

If the patch fails to locate the proper readme file (Old file not
found, however a file of the same name...), simply copy the readme file
directly from the CD to the game folder on your hard drive and then
execute the update.
Old file not found - This error message occurs when you do not have the
update actually inside the game folder. Make sure that you do not have
a shortcut created and the update is located in the proper folder.

Old file not found, however a file of the same name was found, no
updating done since file contents do not match. - This will occur if
any of the files the update is trying to load, have been changed from
the files on the original game CD or prior updates, or you have the
file in the wrong game folder, perhaps another Battleground game, and
the contents are different. We suggest at this point, uninstalling your
game, reinstalling it and then applying the update to the fresh install.
