    The BF2 1.5 patch is damn near 2 gbs. Trying to download this big of a file, that is older, as a torrent will take 40000 hours! Use one of the servers without a download manager and you should get it quicker. As for your installation problem, anytime a game is installed, it goes to a default location and if you change it, a patch will not work unless you point it there. Also, if you pirated the game, which it kinda sounds like, the patch will not work.

    Usually, the way it works is: install game to C drive: program files x86 (depending on your OS), EA, Battlefield 2. Or something like that. That would be the default setting and if you changed where it installed, the patch will not work. Let's say you installed it to the D drive. You have to tell the patch to install there as well.

    This is just a guess as you are not being very clear as to what the actual problem is. Give me some info that can actually help me and I might be able to return the favor

    Nxs - to be honest really few patches need pointing installation folder because patch can take installation path from windows registry.

    Usually when patch cant find path it's because game was incorrectly installed. Can you install game again? (maybe try folder name without (TM))
