A friend of mine had a similar problem with every install/patch. He would have to get the game files already patched from someone else.
After a lot of trial and error, we found out it was a registry key left behind by an unfinished install ages ago. After deleting the value, he could install and patch the game normally.
So try uninstalling and deleting everything MS-related, then run CCleaner's registry cleaner.
