Whenever I try to install the 1.2 patch is simply says that the old file does not exist. When the start screen for the patch comes up the file that it wants to install to just says FA. Then it searches for a hell of a long time for systems to update. When it gets done searching another screen comes up with the directory of USNF 97 on it and it says the file is FAEXE or something close to that, i might be missing a A or something in there. I have Windows 7 and I run the game in win 95 comp. mode and it runs fine with no color problems or anything. It just runs WAY too fast. I have already seen the other thread with this issue and i tried everything and it didnt work. I dont have access to another OS or anything like that. But any help would be really appreciated, thanks

First let me say welcome to the site!

However...

I dont think anyone here has experience with Win 7 yet...

Did you change the name of the FA directory you installed to? Did you do the full install?

Do you have a older windows system you could patch a FA install with, and then copy over to your new machine?

Let me correct myself, I do have access to another system. But I would like to try to get it working so in case anyone else comes on here they wont have to make another thread. But, my janes folder is is not in my program files. Like I click on my computer, then C:, then Janes is on that list. Not in the my programs folder. But, I have tried to move the Janes folder into the program files folder and still no luck. And before anything else, I do have FA right? Im not sure if I do or not. I have 3 campains. But my disk only says USNF 97, and that the only disk I have. It didnt come with any instructions or anything. And I have seen some screenshots for FA and it has a F-117 flying, and I def. dont have one of those.

It sounds like you have USNF 97, and not Fighters Anthology. USNF 97 has 3 campaigns: Ukraine, Kurile Islands, and Vietnam. Fighters Anthology has 6 campaigns (the 3 from USNF 97 and Vladivostok, Egypt, and the Baltics).

Your disk would unmistakably say Fighters Anthology if you had it, and the game main menu would say it as well. This is why the patch cannot find files to update.

that is depressing. Is there a patch that will slow down the frame rate for USNF 97? And I have seen some slow down programs and the best I see is mo slo but I am having some trouble figuring out how to use it. What are the steps in using it? Ive looked over it for a while now and I still cant really figure it out. Thank you for any help though

Zephyr keeps the USNF patches on the site...

I do not have any experience with USNF so I cant say if the patch will actually help you or not...
