Battlefield 2 patch problems

[collisster]

hey guys,
I got BF" Deluxe edition for christmas and I'm having trouble patching it.
I have downloaded several diff versions of the patch and none seem to work, some dont open, the one from the ea ftp download takes about 20 mins to open the patcher, it seems to have patched it, beacuse it opens a patching program, and when I check in game I'm still on an old version.

can someone help me please?
thanks

I tried the reboot hasn't patched is there a european patch?
I've got like 5 different versions of it and none work
I'm currently downloading another version of it
should I build up the patches from 1.2 upwards ? and see if that works..
the version I'm on is 1.1............. and a load of rando numbers
btw its the deluxe version

ok I downloaded another version of the patch, ran it, it took about 5 mins to start, and another 5 to finish, I did a reboot and followed a friend into road to jallabd and it worked, luck of the draw with th patches as I've been told some are corrupt,

Its fixed now anyway thanks
