what you mean by drag and drop that you just copy folders and not use a cd rom disk at all ?
if that so well there lot of keys you dont have now and that means it wont work unless you have the disk
if you lost your cds i can give iso files or bf1942 full hd installer
before you install your new bf1942 first
remove your old bf1942 by uninstaller if that still works!
if it does not work do manually uninstall of bf1942.
manually uninstall guide
remove the folder named Battlefield 1942
in C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES
remove shotcuts on desktop
remove alllprograms menu of bf1942
press start copy paste this in search
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
open ea games and remove Battlefield 1942
i know it's a lot of work ☹️ but now the hard stuff.
press start
open regedit.exe
and go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EA GAMES
and remove Battlefield 1942
now press edit on top of regedit.
now press search.
now search for 698D7E61-E4BF-4CA6-8A09-CF6BDBFDEF65
the file is in
on 32 bit windows HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
or
on 64bit windows HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
make sure !! the key is from bf1942 check the DisplayName it will say Battlefield 1942 (see screenshot)
if you are sure! delete 698D7E61-E4BF-4CA6-8A09-CF6BDBFDEF65
now go to
on 32bit windows HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\EA Games\
or
on 64bit windows HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic Arts\EA Games\
delete Battlefield 1942
you now fully uninstalled bf1942 manually
(if you cant find all registry keys you can try to skip and see if a reinstall works )
you can get bf1942 2 ways
do the full hd installer you dont need a cd key for this its full auto install but it looks different from the Original bf1942 hd skin packs 🙂
here link

or you can try my iso downloads you do need your Original cd key to get this to work
i cant upload iso files to google drive they will remove it and i only use trusted no ads file hosts so you can download only real files
so if you want the iso you can get this from my teamspeak 3 server
if you dont have teamspeak 3 get here http://www.teamspeak.com/

Dear emile44,
I did like you told me a full manual uninstall and installed your battlefield 1942 hd installer and installed the game. Then I successfully applied the two patches 1.6.19 and 1.6 to 1.61 but when I try to apply the patch battlefield 1942 gamespy patch v1.61 I get an error "No Battlefield".
Can you please help me again or tell me what can I do or delete (maybe a windows update is causing this to happen).
Thanks again.

you just installed the all in patch up pack on hd bf1942 ? i made that all in one patch up pack for cd versions only ! cd is version 1.0 ☹️ so thats why first patch is 274 mb big when you are on 1.0 you need too patch up maps pb and more.
the bf1942 hd installer you just download is already fully patch up all you need was the gamespy patch in that pack.
so uninstall bf1942 hd and
reinstall again
and this time just use gamespy patch read the INSTALL_INSTRUCTIONS.txt inside hd bf1942 installer 😉
