I am still having the same filesize mismatch issue. Any other ideas for me or information needed? Is really like too play this game again.

 The games start okay and the intro scenes play beautifully, but I can't escape out of them, and when I go to start the games, I can't type in my name to begin. It's as if the keyboard is disabled. I checked the DOSBox Status Window, and line 3 says "Failed to create hardware surface", and line 4 says "Restarting video subsystem with windib enabled".

Any help?

Hello! Looking for help with downloading an update for Wing Commander 4. The game shows up in My Games and when Origin is started, the app begins an update for WC4 but then immediately a pop-up window appears with the message "download failed". Next, the app pauses the update. If I try to run the update again, same message again. If I click Play I get a pop-up saying "VirtualProtect() failed." and the loading stops.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks everyone!

Of the two patch versions listed on the site link provided, neither will install. The error reported is "Filesize mismatch". So sadly the answer for me at least is "no sir". Seems others posting in this thread have had the same negative results.

There does seem to be a 672 byte update available through the Origin app for WC4 but when it starts to run the update also refuses to download.

Hopefully someone will discover a fix. At least the WC3 game seems to run OK.

I installed Wing Commander 4 a while ago and played it for quite a while and it worked great. I took some time off from it and now I'm getting "VirtualProtect failed." I reinstalled it and still am getting the error. I've run the "Repair Game" which didn't do anything and then ran "Check for Update" and it keeps coming back with "Update failed."

Is there anyone who's found a way to fix this?
