I'll keep looking, it is just annoying that when I search for a patch in 
google or yahoo, I get about 30 pages of links to patches for Blood Omen 
2, some write only Blood Omen, but when I download it, they are for 
Blood Omen 2.

Unfortunately, ot activision or Crystal Dynamics webpages they have no 
info for BO 1. So I guess it isn't supported anymore.

Did anyone else enjoy this game?

I remember having lots of fun with it, but didn't like any of the Soul 
Reaver "sequels"
