Subject: Halo 1 pc patch problem

I just got the game today, (mostly for the code, but to play it also), and I try to play online, it says I need a patch, and I need administrator privledges. I am the administrator on my computer, and I don't see how that matters, where can I just download the patch?

Mmmmm, Cheese....

You can download the recent patch from the Halo PC place on this site. (I think, that was a while ago.) Otherwise, right click the shortcut and go to compatibility, check 'Run this program as administrator'. You can uncheck it after the updates. (I think, I have it checked right now.)

That's the number of bans in this thread. Next time you want to derail something, go stand in front of a train.

Or, you can just go to your hard drive where Halo is installed, usually

Just open my computer and put in the address bar either:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\haloupdate.exe
-for Halo PC and:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\haloupdate.exe
-for Halo Custom Edition

If you have a shortcut on your desktop right click it and go to "Open File Location", then look for haloupdate.exe and run that.

That's another way to do it.
