GWX - Installation help needed - Please

[Collie]

Hi
I'm looking for some help here which would greatly improve my sons happiness... think of the kids!

I had GW 1.01 on my PC and decided to upgrade to GWX. I uninstalled SH3, wiped the careers and reinstalled it. Added on the 1.4b patch and then GWX so it was a clean install.

When I launch the game it crashes and I get a debug message. Which I'm sickened with as I have read the manual and it looks great.

Can anyone help with some easy to understand information?Cheers
Colm

1.Uninstall SH3 via Windows' "Add/Remove programs"
2. Open Windows Explorer and:
- *delete* the folder where you had installed SH3
- *delete* the \My Documents\SH3 folder
3. Reinstall SH3
4. If your SH3 did not come with patch v1.4b already included, install patch v1.4b. Ensure you install the patch that corresponds to your copy of SH3 (Download/DVD/EMEA/US)
5. OPTIONAL: Copy and paste this "clean" install as a backup to avoid the need to follow steps 1-3 if your game becomes corrupt in future
6. Visit the GWX homepage (http://www.users.on.net/~jscones/GWX/) and download into the SAME folder GWX.exe and the five .bin files. While there grab the v1.03 patch
7. Run GWX.exe and follow the installation prompts
8. Run GWX103.exe and follow the installation prompts
9. SH3 COMMANDER USERS: Visit the GWX homepage (http://www.users.on.net/~jscones/GWX/) and download the GWX 1.02+ Cfg files for SH3 Commander and unzip the contents DIRECTLY into your SH3 Commander\Cfg folder.
