I try to install it, and it says that it cannot find an installed version of EU on my computer. Anyone had this problem?

Same here. Other versions of the patch could be installed but would not work. Had to revert to 1.07.
Did you install the game to a folder different from the default? Just a thought, because I didn't have a problem installing the US patch -- I used the default settings during installaion. Don't know if something like that matters with the patch installation.
I know it will screw you if you install a patch into any folder except the one EU is in. Then, nothing will help except a full uninstall/reinstall.
Same problem
I just got the game today from Compuexpert and cannot install the 1.08 patch. No matter what directory I put the patch in I get a message that says "EU not found" or something like that when I try to apply it. I installed the game to the default directory. C:\program files\paradox entertainment\europa universalis.
I really want to be able to save during the tutorial because I understand it takes a couple hours to complete. Very interested in any work arounds.

Re: Same problem
Does it say Strategy First on the CD from Compuexpert? If not then you can't use the NA update. If I recall right the CD is printed in an orange color for the Strategy First version (correct me if I'm wrong).

Patch Problems
Patric,
The CD I have is black with silver lettering. It has a BLACKSTAR logo and also says "English Version".
I tried the English patch, too. It will install, but then the game refuses to run saying that the CD isn't in the drive.
Thanks for the quick response on the first message.

Only an info Patric, are you telling that EU has another distributor in North America?

Found a Fix!
I finally got the patch to work by following a technique I saw in another thread. I installed the German patch, which worked fine.
Since my German is a little rusty, I copied the English 'text.csv' file over the one installed by the German patch and now everything works just fine. I have version 1.08 running in English!
