1.) Make sure you remove all MOD's when installing a patch
2.) make sure you install the appropriate patch (not random patch, try-and-fail tactics)
3.) what type of game you have? Nobilis? Gamersgate? Atari? - boxed/downloaded?
4.) during install you may consider deactivating any firewall/antivirus or client non-essential services...
5.) try to reinstall the game anew prior new patch try/intall (back up your saves... so you won't "incidetnally" check the "delete saves" box)

also try to find in this "technical problems and solution" some threads that would fit your game version and symptoms... You may find a lot of usefull hints...

they are not "different host", they are different distributer. With different copy protection schemes.

Uninstall the game (keep the saves obviously), delete leftover files from the directory (saves are stored in my documents not in the KB directory), do a clean install.

If you bought your game @:
1. Atari DVD at the store in europe/US: install nobulous patch.
2. Direct2Drive: you are screwed, no patch for you.
3. GamersGate: install the gamersgate patch.
4. Russia: Install the russian patch.
