| | Halo Multiplayer I've got Halo, and recently got a Vista computer. I uploaded it and it all works fine. Except for multiplayer. It says I need to be an Administator to download the next patch. But I am the administator. I'm the only user the use this computer. Is there a way to bypass getting the patch? or can someone tell me how to download the patch without the error coming up? Thanks |

| | Re: Halo Multiplayer There is a patch? How do I get it? Right-clicking on the game in GE just has "play" as an option and I don't see a download option anywhere in the game itself.

If the patch does not download you "should" be able to find it on the Microsoft website somewhere if you do a little searching. -A. |
