Need Help - Halo PC Manual Update

Hokay,

A while back I was playing on an awesome server, the gametype was Team Race and the map cycle was going through all the Vehicle maps so I knew it would eventually go onto my Blood Gulch map.
Thing is, back then my Blood Gulch map was modded with an AI mod so I knew the game would crash out.

I made a back-up of my original Blood Gulch map but I modded that one by accident *bangs head on table*, so therefore I re-installed HPC.

And that's when my troubles begun, after it finished I tried to get back into the game/server, but I needed the Manual Update attainted from the Microsoft.com/games/halo etc link. Went there, got the updates, installed - thing is, I still couldn't play on the dedicated server(s).. And it still says Manual update required etc etc.

I then went on a Google/Microsoft searching rampage to get that damned patch and still no luck.
My HPC is at version 1.07 and I still haven't found the patch.

I'm positive this could be fixed with a simple link, just that I haven't found it yet..

Any ideas?

stupid question, but it still didn't work after rebooting?
since that is sometimes the error

also, i have a clean hpc, if you know where the files are, i could give them to you.

maybe the .exe?
or would that be illegal

My friend needed a manual upgrade.We had to replace all of the update files and go into the registry and change the version from 1.00 to 1.07.
Try the registry thing.
