Further investigation reveals that I had some corrupted files in my game directory/folder. The only solution to uninstall the whole lot - dfrag my HD and re-install SH3 and all my mods. Fortunately I have a near complete set of everything I need for this stored on a memory stick - and now to start all over again!
An odd thought just struck me - I have been playing this game for more than twice as long as the Battle of the Atlantic lasted in real life . . .
