You could try just copying over from the CD.
 
No, that is not what I meant, because the CD does not contain an installable version.

What you need to do is not copy the files to the desktop, copy the files to the folder that contains EU2, the computer will recognise that the files have the same name and ask you if you want to overwrite the existing ones.
Answer yes to all.
 
Great, let me know how it goes.
 
Remind me why you do not have an EU2 CD you can install from.
 
I would suggest this:
1) Make a folder and call it EU2Patches
2) Down load patch 1.07, 1.08 and any beta patches you want.
All of which can still be found on this board. If you cannot locate them let me know and I will provide links. This way you can reinstall when ever there is a problem or you want to try new things.
3) Wipe EU2 from your system.
4) Do a fresh install
5) Apply what ever patches you want to use.
 
If you cannot find the patch you want let me know.
