I am using windows xp but when i got to install VC on my new machine, i get cannot find setup.cfb(i think my disc is screwed) I tried everything but can't get it to install...so on my old machine i had VC installed also with 1.30, i just copied the game and transferred it to my new machine but now how do i get it to install the new patch? I downloaded the 1.41 patch and it says "Installer was unable to find previous installation of vietcong. It's not possible to install 1.41 patch. Any idea's on what i can do?

if you still have your old machine... turn it on, log in to windows and open the registry (start>run>type regedit >enter)
the go to hkey_local_machine>software>pterodon
rightclick pterdon>export
export the reg key to your desktop, save the file on a zip or if you dont have zips burn it on a cd
put the zip/cd in your new pc, doubleclick the regkey and voila
