Dear Blizzard Representative,
Recently I was trying to play starcraft brood wars on battle.net, so I downloaded it from the blizzard store and installed it like usual, and the game itself seems to work fine. Unfortunately however, when I attempt to connect
to battle.net, the patch does not install correctly.
Attempt at standard patching through connecting to battle.net:
Patching cannot be completed because the patch archive is corrupt.
File name: SEXP_IX86_1xx_1161.mpq
If you are unable to correct this problem, please contact Blizzard Technical Support.

ERROR: unable to open archive 'SEXP_IX86_1xx_1161.mpq'.
RESULT: Patch failed
I also tried to do the patch by downloading BW-1161.exe from the support page and running it, but I get this error:

This patch upgrades Brood War from version 1.04 to version 1.16.1.
ERROR: unable to apply patch to file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\StarCraft\StarEdit.exe'
RESULT: Patch failed
I am on an administrator account on Windows Vista 64-bit, Starcraft is being run in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP2, StarEdit is being run in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP2, and Brood Wars has patched itself perfectly multiple times on this same computer before. I'm baffled, please help?
Thanks.
None.
