Question Regarding Patch Update

I had a question regarding the patch update for the Kings Quest, Space Quest and Police Quest collections.

Every time I install the patch update it gives me the option to install the patch to the AGI versions (eventhough they are not included in the collections) but it never seems to patch the game correctly.

I always put the game inside the installed 'Collection' folder, but for some reason it never seems to find it. Should I name the folder in a specific way for it to work? (e.g. sq1agi)

I can't figure out how to get the patch to include the AGI version, so any help with this would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Copy the files from your disks to a temporary folder on your hard drive and then copy the patch to the same folder. Run the patch from that folder.

Didn't work, I'm not sure what the problem is ... I can't seem to get it to work.

Are all of the files readable on your floppy disks?

If by Floppy Disks you mean file folder than yes they are all readable. I am able to play it with DOSBox no problem, but it the patch won't recognize it for some reason.

Is it possible for someone to show me a screenshot of the contents of their Kings Quest Collection Folder?

It may be a version difference. What version is listed on the floppies?
