Ok, if you go to the game directory (either C:\Program Files\Monolith Productions\The Matrix Online or C:\Program Files\Sony\The Matrix Online I think) and look for two folders which begin with an _ and delete them. Then try opening the game again and patching to see if that makes any difference.

ermm i deleted something before i read your post and it made it so the launcher never comes up now, i tryed a uninstal reinstal to try and fix my blunder and its still broke, i think i just have to get a transfer cable and hook it up
Do you get any error message?
What happens if you go into the game directory and double click on the file called launcher.exe?
Also, in your game directory, do you have a file called useropts.cfg?

It sounds like a file permissions error. I'll have Vista Ultimate after March 16th and will be able to answer those questions with a bit more authority. Make sure your system account has permissions to install programs. (or get someone who knows how to do this to make the cahnge for you)
As for "I deleted something and now the launcher doesn't even load" *bangs head on desk*
Look in your install directory. If you have the file matrix.exe make a copy and rename the copy to launcher.exe
Then make a shortcut to launcher.exe on your desktop and run the shortcut.
