You downloaded patch 1.12b? It's a little fix for 1.12. Confirm it, please.

hey it they sent it through battlenet i have it

 

[TrongaMonga]

Yeah, I thought as much, too

Well, I suppose the best you can do is to reinstall SC, if you can. And download the patch from the Internet instead of battle.net.

Go to blizzard's site to find it.

Uninstall->Reinstall. I had the same problem. It should be fixed.

If not, scan for spyware or viruses. That is o course a last resort, but you never know, things do effect StarCraft like that. So it's always worth a try if you've ran out of ideas.

well okay i'll try later thx BTW why is it better to download the patch from the website than bnet?

 

[Darkmatter]

Generally, I think it's because B.net happens to screw up the update in one way or another, and it is easier to install the update, then conntrect to Battle.net and you can go from there. That's how it is with me. When I use Battle.net to install updates, i sometimes have to do most of one and then the last small part happens right after the actual update, and I'm wondering ''What the....'',so yeah.
