I really appreciate your help and thanks for the welcome into the community

Just looking for some assistance on this error message I keep getting when trying to run First Strike v1.2 "Shaders/StaticMesh.fx not found!!!_DO_check your working directory,_AND_sync your shaders folder before calling upon your local rendering programmer/GP.(really!)".

For your information I can confirm that I am running the following specs;

Windows Vista 32-bit Ultimate,
Intel Q6600 2.4GHz quad,
OCZ 1066MHz RAM @ 4GB,
ASUS P5N-E SLI motherboard,
2 x Leadtek 8800GTX in SLI,
BF2142 upgraded patch to v1.4 and installed First Strike v1.2

I have had a look through my folder C:\Program Files\ Electronic Arts\BF2142 and cannot see a directory labelled Shaders.  I hope that someone may be able to provide some assistance for I have uninstalled and reinstalled BF2142 several times and tried reinstalling First Strike v1.2 to no avail.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
