Launch issue, see inside for error message

StaticMesh.fx(2): error X1507: failed to open source file: 'mods/xpack/shaders/datatypes.fx

This happens every time I launch. I've just spent a good 3-4 hours getting PR installed (Vista), and now I can't play it. Anyone got any ideas?

This is an error with one of your BF2 expansion packs (Special Forces or Armoured Fury). I believe it happens because you applied an update to BF2 before you installed the expansion ... so the expansion never got updated.
