Thanks for all you help and patience, you have been great getting me to this point

Steve, thanks for the tip a about waiting.

It appeared to be frozen as it stuck on the max red line for ages but guess what, after 9mins 10 secs it started!!!!!! I,m back in the game woohooooo

I have been playing SH3 for years with mods , sh4 isn't as good in my opinion, SH5 is eye candy but horrible to play as I just cannot get into it so keep coming back to sh3. And now I can play it once again on win 10.

A very happy bunny . Just one thing, how do I get out the harbour, all the locks are closed!!!,

What mods are you using?

Go to your v15 folder\data\cfg\careers and delete any career names.
Reboot your system.
Start the SH3Commander application from the main folder.
Select a new Career name.
Start the game.
At the menu select new career.
When the game loads to the office click on the map.
Depending on your system it can take 5 or 6 minutes to load the game.

If this does not work then the fact that you have another freeze or ctd will be a compatibility issue.
Your gpu needs to be 2gb or greater or if you are using a laptop with an integrated gpu this can also be a problem too.
The fact that the freeze happens when trying to load usually right at the end of the line is not really any different to a ctd, something is not right and it is telling you.
Were you able to load the Naval Academy with the 2 mods installed without any loading problems or glitches?
Did you actually try say the Navigation Tutorial to see if all the controls etc, were looking ok and everything was in the right place?

I have never had a ctd in the game but I had numerous game loading crashes in all sorts of places before I found the right compatibility.
Sometimes I could reload the game straight away and it would load without any problems.
