can't apply 4GB patch, fs9.exe

[Reason 20]

It says "couldn't open executable". I have tried re downloaded. Still not working. The backup fs9.exe is created thou. Thank you

Ok this is odd. It failed to patch the original "fs9.exe" from my fs9 CD, but the "fs9.exe.backup" was created. When I tried to patch the "fs9.exe.backup" instead the original one, it worked. Lucky guess

Coming off the disk, the original would have copied as "read only" - the created backup file had "read/write" permissions.DJ

So did I do it right, copy the original fs9.exe to backup ----> patch the backup exe, then edit the "fs9.exe.backup" to "fs9.exe"?
