The directory where I installed the game was on drive F:\games\SH4.
I then copied this directory to the F:\games folder, and added JSGME.
I then installed the Berbsters mod collection on to this copy of the game.

JSGME config :
Generic Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157
[F:\games\SH4TheBerbsters\MODS]

I installed the game from the DVDs. Both base game and Uboat missions

Thanks
ok, that's quite a list. some of the mods i have not heard of and have not used. here is what i can say.

***
i strongly suggest that you use Large Address Aware (LAA). Even though you system has 8gb memory SH4 in its natural state uses 1-2 gb. LAA will allow it to use up to 4 gb. you will find it in the MODS forum. ignore the 32-bit thing. i have using it in two 64-bit OS with SH4.

1 Game Fixes Only Mod v1.1 - load first

these conflict with each other, especially the first two. Not sure about the remainders. i'd drop the second one and test the working order of the remainder.
15 Magnified Hud Dials for v1.5_Large-Menu(Gui, Skins, menu.ini)
13 sobers compass mod_version color-changes the compass on the HUD. may conflict
6 Bigger Better Protractors-changes HUD tools on Nav map
2 MaxOptics IV for GFO 1.1 (CFG, Library, Menu (menu.ini), Movies, Texture)

The first one is was developed in 2009 so it may not work with 1.5. the last two seems to be overlapping although they change different files. i suggest dropping the first and test with the remaining.
3 Real Environment mod install-some had CTD others ok.
4 GFO Patch for Real Env
17 Remove grain effect-changes Noise.dds 2009
16 Webster's Eliminate Floating Plankton - changes impurity-load last directions

these two are mutually exclusive. load one only
8 Webster's Upgraded Deck Gun v2-
8 Webster's Upgraded Deck Gun v1

These two are changing the same files, for the most part. choose one.
12 Stop The Shouting
11 Pacific Sound Mod

This will change GFO's campaign file. It should not casue a problem but it may.
7 Extra Allied naval bases for Stock SH4 + UBM v3.0-changes US Naval Bases campaign file

10 Eye Patch for Stock - should not conflict
5 Webster's No Crew Fatigue - should not conflict

9 Webster's New sonar view for v1.5-changes the Interior files for 3 boats-load last directions

14 3000 Yard Bearing Tool (1920x)-load last directions

****

whew. had to do a bit of research because some of these mods are not familiar to me.
i am sure that others will comment on my comments.

Good Luck!
