You did actually use compatibility mode on the FS.exe file and not the freespace.exe one? You did then run the FS.exe file directly instead of using the launcher?

tried both, in varying combinations.

Didn't even know there was a patch, though I've got the FS Battlepack so if there is a patch I suppose I should have it.

You should be able to patch it to 1.06. Silent threat bumps it back down to 1.04 when installed.
