First, make sure your SH3 install is clean. Roll back SH3 Commander if you use it, uninstall your previous version of SH3, and then once that's done delete all the SH3 folders out of the C:/Program Files/Ubisoft and C:/My Documents directories. Run a good registry cleaner. Next step, install stock SH3 and apply the 1.4b patch. Once you've done that and are primed for GWX fun, pour yourself a whiskey (2 fingers full in a rocks glass with 3 ice cubes, just the way Sinatra liked it) and put on Das Boot.
Rinse, repeat until GWX is out. :up:

Ah . . . and which SHIII should I uninstall? As I have four independant versions currently residing on my HD. And deleting the folders out of My Documents isn't an option for me, since as much as I'm looking forward to playing GWX I really don't desire to delete the info from all my other careers and games.

Hi, can I offer a solution to this as I have 3 variations on my HD; I created a stock SHIII with 1.4 on my External Hard Drive [120GB] then downloaded GWX Beta into My Documents, started up the exe. and when it asked for the path, I pointed the GWX Beta file into that version [for example .. 'D' Drive/SHIII].
To start it, I go into the SHIII folder and fire it up by clicking the red SHIII icon = works like a charm.
A 40/80 GB Hard Drive is very cheap now in this rip-off Country so will be nickels and dimes elsewhere.
Having an external hard drive saved me a lot of hassle and stress.
PS One other point of note if you decide to do this is not to have a SHIII folder in My Documents when you fire it up as one is created [I created 'Garages' in My Documents folder for the different versions].
