Wondering if anyone can help me to run Links 2001 online on my notebook computer with Windows Vista Home Premium operating system.
Following on from Terrel's comments, I was able to extract the 1.22 exe file and run cepatch.exe. My version of links 2001 is now 1.22, but I still cannot access online play.

looks like if you download 2001v122.exe and run it, you get three files, one being cepatch.exe (assuming you have links 2001 championship edition), which you need to run. is that where it's going south on you, or derailing somewhere before that?
caveat: i've disabled user control and automatically login as administrator on my vista notebook. i'm not quite sure what roadblocks you run into if you're not logging in as an administrator."
