You need to have the 3GB of free space there too.
You can temporaryly move the location of program files in registry and the patch runs regardsless of the space on the drive.
Open regedit.exe , and go to
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion]
Edit ProgramFilesDir from C:\Program Files to e.g. D:\Program Files if D: is your second harddrive.
Then run patch, and after patching change the registry setting back to what it was before editing. If you restart the PC and don't change back, several shortcuts for Windows applications won't work etc, so take note of this.

The game is most likely crashing now for you as like a lot of other people the latest patch does nothing but cause issues, wait for the next patch (in July) unless you want to waste a lot of time trying to fix it.

Re: Help please?
You just need the full patch 1.3, dont worry about the other ones. Although patch 1.3 produces mixed results for people, it might work for you, it might not. There is another patch due out next month which should be a lot better, so if you find 1.3 doesnt work for you, just wait a while.
