Back into Descent after a number of years, still nothing like it.

Problem -- I'm using XP for Descent 3 Sol Ascent.  I downloaded the patch
1.4, but when the installer asks for the folder and I point it to it, I get
the following:

"Patch Error"
"Old File not found.  However, a file of the same name was found.  No update
done since file contents do not match."

Is Sol Ascent different from regular D3?  Anybody had a similar experience?
