Uninstalled and reinstalled the game and patches 1.3 and 1.4 before restarting the computer afterwards. The game works great now.

Just looked at it. It's been unchecked the whole time, so that won't work...

I thought I got the game to work properly, but I'm having another weird issue. This time, when attempting to continue a saved campaign, everything goes right, until the actual mission loads. After that, the squad I just picked isn't the one that's deployed. Instead, it's a single guy whose last name is Wong. It should be noted that I when I most recently did a Quick Mission, I picked Wong, and only Wong, to be on my platoon for the firefight. (I'm presuming that if I were to do another quick mission, pick a different platoon, I'll call it platoon Z, and then attempt to continue my saved campaign and pick a platoon, platoon X, I'll deploy with Platoon Z, not X.) Help is appreciated. EDIT: I attempted to run another Quick Mission, only to have the two-man squad I picked be replaced by Wong. (I'm running the game with the most recent patch (v1.4) and without DS and IT on Windows Vista Home Premium without using compatibility mode.)

Thanks, now the game is functioning fine. Having a blast right now.

Since I'm a dummy, what should I know about how to download the patches before I download them?

I don't have Desert Siege or Island Thunder, can I still skip past the 1.1 and 1.2 patches?

Hey guys, I just got the game, but I can't play missions or select my squad without the game crashing. For those who might be able to help, here's a look at ike.log and ikecrash.log (Additional note: I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit but I'm running the game in compatibility mode for Windows XP (Service Pack 2)): ike: ***** User's system configuration ***** CPU: GenuineIntel 2196 MHz Recent Intel RAM: 2022 MB O/S: Microsoft Windows NT Family 6.0 Service Pack 2 build 6002 RSOptions: Could not open options file options.xml for reading, using defaults RSFILEDATA: FindFile could not find file unlocked_heroes.xml RSFILEDATA: FindFile could not find file unlocked_missions.xml ikecrash: GhostRecon caused an Access Violation in module GhostRecon.exe at 001b:0045282f.
