just wondering which ones I do first and in what order since my game hasn't been installing correctly or something.
thanks.

and when it says to overwrite for the patch, do I just drop them into the europa folder or manually put them into their own folders?
Putting them in their own folders wouldn't be overwriting anything, now would it? 
Each file in an expansion or patch must overwrite the previous version of the same file. With the expansion and patch 2.2 installs it is enough to direct the installer to the directory Rome is in (I'd recommend installing Rome outside the default system path, in a new directory like c:\games\rome); with the beta you must manually expand it, preserving the directory structure, so as to overwrite the Rome/VV/2.2 files. It is best to actually make a copy of your whole Rome directory structure elsewhere after 2.2 has installed (eg c:\games\rome-beta) and apply the beta patch to that. This way if anything goes wrong you have your original installation intact.

thank you a lot for the reply and help, I always forget one step in the install.. this time it was overwriting rome with vae victis.
creating a secondary folder helped also.

one thing.. do I need to install it all this way.. "europa - overwrite with vae victis - 2.2 - 2.32"?
or do I download 1.3 before 2.2?
i'm crashing a lot.. so it must be the way I installed it.

Isn't that exactly what I said in posts #2 and #4? I don't understand where your uncertainty comes from, sorry.
I didn't list 1.3 in the installation sequence for the reason that it is not required. Are you getting the right checksum now? What is it? If so the game and beta are installed correctly, and the crashes come from somewhere else (eg video driver).
