The publisher is printed on the CD, the box, the manual, most likely has a splash screen...

Paradox is not a publisher!, they are the developer. What other LOGO is on your CD? Where did you buy your CD? (what country) was it from a store or online...

A splash screen is when you start the game the little animation or movie that says the companies name.

What logos are on your CD?

What about the box and the manual, I guarantee you the publishers logo is on them.

Trying to install the wrong patch is not a good idea.

Here's the best bet, since it seems something has gone awry with your registry from the first installation...

1. Follow the uninstall procedure in the sticky at the top of the forum.

2. Now install HoI again

3. Since you say you're from the States you should have no trouble at all with the NA patch 1.03. If you do have a problem then the chances are that you bought a pirated version which will not patch and which, for understandable reasons, we will not support. You can tell this easily by looking at the top of the CD and then reporting back here what three logos you see there.

I ve tried every version of 1.03 i could find and all say i dont have the game, but indeeed i do

Ok, this is getting really strange.

1. Where did you purchase the game?
2. What did the box look like?
3. What logos can you find on the CD?

If you can't answer the above questions then I'm afraid there is nothing we can do to help you as we are not able to identify the version for you.

We were asking about the CD, you mentioned above that you still had that. So what logos are on it? Paradox logo and what other ones?

Unless you can correctly answer all 3 of Patrics questions then we cannot help you.

Sorry.

Do a complete uninstall, see the Self help guide at the top of this forum and notice that #1 is a link with instructions on how to do this. Then do a fresh install and apply the NA 1.03 patch.
If you have a legit copy that should work.
