Any subsimmers in the NOLA area

I am at wits end. I screwed up and accidentally activated a mod while I was in mission, and broke my GWX mod. So, I took all my files off, and did a clean reinstall of SH3 v1.4, then redownloaded GWX and activated the mods I wanted. Now, when I try to run it, I get an error message about needing to be iin a different version of Windows to run the game. I'm on Win10 but I never had a problem running it before. If anyone is close to me, I live on the westbank, near New Orleans, I will pay or barter or anything for someone to help me fix this and get GWX back up and running. I have no clue what more to do and I'm so frustrated.

It's not working, I don't have an option for 10, just 7 or 8. I just want this to work, I'm about to just give up.

Try compatability mode for Windows 7. If run as administrator, if your Machine is 64-bit, patch the .exe with the 4gb patch, large address aware.
