I'm having troubles running Soldats.exe

I've installed the main program, and installed the fix. i go to run Soldats and a message comes up and says that 'C:\Soldat\Soldat.exe is not a valid win32 application'

I looked for a solution but it looks like this is an 'original' problem i have. I've got Directx v8.1 and win2000 with the latest servoce packs. i can config stuff but just cant run the main program...

Download Soldat from another mirror, uninstall Soldat, make sure the folder is completely gone, reinstall Soldat from the new file, restart your computer and try again..

I've never read about someone having this problem with Soldat, so I guess it's a corrupt download or something like that.

hmmm, it works now, i just closed internet explorer after finishing surfing and then it worked fine. wierd, maybe its a ram issue.
