My Battlefield 1942, Desert Combat give error of wrong version trying to play on internet

My Battlefield 1942, Desert Combat give error of wrong version trying to play on internet.  
They seem to be fine in single player.
I dont know the patches and the order they need to be installed.  (A friend told me these errors come from installing the game and patches incorrectly.)
I need exact directions on how to install the software, and then the patches.  And which patches to install.
Thank you!!

My advice would be - uninstall the game fully - then before following MASQUERAID's advice - run CCleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com/download/) - just in case there is anything left behind after the uninstall that may interfere with the new install later on...

Hi Masqueraid and And.  I uninstalled the game.  I didnt run the cleaner though.  I usually dont have problems when uninstalling/resinstalling.  So I reinstalled successfully, and then tried to install the 1st patch,  BF1942 v.1.6.19 patch, and I got the error:  "You have version 1.03.101 of BF 1942 installed.  This patch upgrades version 1.05.001.  Instalation with now close."  (OK)

What should I try next?
Thank you
