Hi i just installed quake 3 and downloaded the 1.32 patch, but it wont let me install it because it says something about an error decompressing quake3.exe or something and a the end it says
err = -9
i did a minimal install - would that be whats wrong with it?
please help

Possible. Try a full installation then run the patch again.

If not, then it might be a corrupted download.
