Sounds like you were doing alright till BoE screwed up things again. I think maybe the sequence in which you installed that (after the other patches) may have done something... not sure.
The install problem has always been about the crappy last minute effort (by Ubisoft) to add DRM to the install and consequently patched it by offering a no-cd check exe because they did such a shoddy job of it in the first place. The DRM makes it difficult for some drives to work with it and later versions of Windows add some more interdependency that just make it a nightmare. I have a permanent backup of IL-2 so I never have to install it again. Fortunately it's a game that doesn't mind that.
Since Ubisoft doesn't support the game in any meaningful way (except the forums) I doubt this will ever be fixed.
