Okay Yesterday i lost my OS drive. so today I have sat here rebuilding my system with a new hard drive. I had no problems until I went to install the 4.6 patch. 4.5 went in without a problem. However I have now downloaded and tried to instal every iteration of the 4.6 patch and NONE, none of them will install. I have VT4 with Lightwave 7.5 and yes I have downloaded the 4.6 L7.5 patch twice but ever time it says, can not find a patchable version of VT4.

Help!

There's a bug in the 4.6b installer Brian. On 1/12/06 in this tread (http://www.newtek.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44436) Paul posted:
We have a simple work-around for the VT4/LW75 customers unable to patch up to version 4.6. If you will e-mail me (plara@newtek.com) I can send you this small corrective file and get you on your way.
The file is a registry patch that allows 4.6b to install and it's working fine here.

Or you can hold off until 4.6c is available as soon as they're finished testing it.

Thanks scott, I hadn't been watching the problem threads since 4.6 original was working fine until my hard drive took a dump...
