I don't want to install the 3rd Service Pack. I rather prefer a stable system with great endurance than the most current version of software available . The only interesting part of SP3 is the updated w-lan and network softare, which could be installed separately if needed.

Well, back to topic: I finally got it working - cheers to all... I don't know why this fix doesn't want to run with my laptop-screen (1440x900), so I plugged in my old 17" CRT, set the resolution to 1280x1024@85Hz, and it runs quite well (I tried 1440x900 on my notebook-screen, too, which ended up in merely bad results - ctd!). Finally, I decided to install a few Mods (GWX3 (incl. St.Naz&SchleuseV4), Foam, SH4 effects for SH3 v7.1, and a few more modifications, especially for ambience - and my own recorded voice for my sonar officer as well ) to enhance gameplay, realism and - of course - the look&feel.
And because the game looks that much more stunning and amazing, I completed five Feindfahrten with U-2 (IIa ^^), starting in '39. 100% Realism, and 35.401 tons sunk in the rough North Sea battlefield , most of them in surface attacks in cover of dark nights - the look&feel is much more compelling than in SH3's default resolution.
