Problems after removing F.O. patch

Hello guys,
I've just experienced big problem after re-patching back the EngRel.exe (following the instruction in .doc-file of F.O.Mod).
I uderstood that something's wrong when I couldn't play Multiplayer at all. (never connected anybody)
Then I unistalled DO and installed again.
I have Windows 7, so I put d3drm.dll in PRG_ENG.
But that doesn't work. (although it worked in the first time).
Black screen after the intro.
I used Intro Crash Fix — didn't help.
Unisntalled and installed again, and did the whole process again — nothing.
I would appreciate if someone could help me to reanimate Warhammer.
Thanks.

Eh. Bembelimen once sayed something like that: do not use ISO drive before launch game, only after intro (which will not apear if you dont have ISO/CD in drive). So, if crash fix didnt help - maybe it will??
And: did you uninstalled DO correctly?
LOL, if nothing will help just reinstall OS. (as always do i each month hehe)
To other players- i reinstalled engrel file with one in the pack of FO patch. It looks like its - ok. All works properly. Dont be scared with prev. post, it just can be his PC/OS problem.

I got an idea! (possibly useless, but you can try!)
Try to recoil system by any spot before the repacking the patch. System files must be returned, so you can reinstall DO safety. (has W7 system recoil?)

How about copying the Original engrel.exe from the CD?
And why havn't you created a backup of the engrel before applying the FO-Patch :/.

Didn't work

I did it as usual: Control Panel → Unistall Programm.
Or is there any other correct way to uninstall it?

No thanks. I like my OS, it makes funny noises when I start it

I thought it's not necessary cause I can always reinstall DO
But it appeard it was not that true.

Hey, guys.
I think I did it!
However I need a good test on that.
I just lokked into the topic Ultimate Dark Omen XP/Vista Game Fixes
http://forum.dark-omen.org/help-section/ultimate-dark-omen-game-fixes-t111.0.html
And as far as I have 64-bit OS, I've read this:
However, for Vista 64, the regedit settings need to be in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ElectronicArts\DarkOmen\1.0\Options\Options]
and not in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\Dark Omen\1.0\Options\Options
"Selected"="1"
"SoftwareSelected"="228"
where the Fix tries to place them. Manually create New String Data "Selected"="1" and"SoftwareSelected"="228"
if they are missing from your Options Folder (perhaps due to Admin Permission and may be in Virtual Store).
And made it.
And it worked
But it seems extremely weird for me that I never did this when I instaled Do for the first time. And everything was fine.
Hmm...
