LOL grr i wouldnt of patched, but i had a problem where i could not play for more den 5mins without it crashing to desktop and in order to fix this i had to delete and redownload a few files... completely forgetting about the patch, and im not going to system restore coz then i cant play for more den 5mins so its just not worht it.
If you deleted your files then system restore wont work for you anyhow. It does NOT undelete files it only restores an earlier version of the regristry, not files.

Example:
If you installed NFL football game on your computer the 10th, and it was causing your computer to lock up, you COULD do a system restore to bring it back to the state it was in before you installed that game. HOWEVER, if you do that, then look on your hard drive, you will see that the game is STILL on your hard drive. It didnt touch the files, it just took your REGISTERED programs back to a date before the regristry had any idea that game existed.

And by the way there IS a solution to the problem that win98 users are experiencing (read, no system restore). Just grab a copy of norton go back or somthing to that nature, it is essentially a third party version of the microsoft native program System Restore.
