I'm pretty sure I had the last official patch and it worked OK, though it was particular about settings. No worse than before. I wonder if 1C even tested the latest version on XP? If they have they would be aware of the problem and should have informed users the game may no longer run if they update. Maybe kept the older release available. In that case I could still run it, but because Steam updates automatically by default I didn't get the chance to freeze my installation at a working version. This would be easy to do with normal download game.
I certainly won't be rushing to buy Win 7. There's no guarantee CLOD would work for me after upgrading. I've emailed 1C support in an attempt to get their opinion on the issue. Maybe they can make sense of the event viewer log and addresses that Launcher reports as having a problem. I don't have cash to spare right now to spend on more PC upgrades.
"CLOD" nicely sums the history of this game up.
