Hi Jimmy,

Okies we have resolved the update problem.

The pop up error is the same sending pop up error as b4
like i said i'm able to play once i just have installed
it but say when i quit and get out the game and then try
to get back in and play again it dosen't work and comes
up with that same error so what i'm saying is will still
haven't resolve the error pop up.
the game is Soldier of Fortune installed from the orginal
cd

the file that is corupted is called "ref_gl.dll"
