    I went straight from the original game to the expansion (with the 1.1 installed in the middle, replaced by expansion data in about 10 minutes), so i haven't had this problem. What you can do is go to activision's website and check for the problem there. What my personal advice would be is: See if you really need 1.1, and if you don't, reinstall the game w/o 1.1. I beat the first game w/o it entirely, so it can't be all that necessary.

    you could also copy the savegames folder and just reinstall the game.. then replace the new savegames folder with the old one and it should all be ok again... in theory
