Greetings
I've just ended a 90 minuite session trying to get my game to start. It was fine last night, well into my fourth patrol, but today has been a disaster.

Attempt No 1.
Started using SH3Cdr desktop icon. Sequence was as follows:
Check disc.
GWX3 loading screen.
Main menu.
Selected saved Career. Selected saved game (last in series)
Game starts loading to point where screen goes black (after "Not so long ago") and one expects the game to start.
Get error message to say SH3 has encounted a problem and has to close.
Details of message (for what it's worth);
AppName SH3.exe Ver 1,4,0,1
Mod name kernel.dll Mod version 0.0.0.0 Offset000187c5

Attempt No2
Rolled back SH3 Cdr
As above but starting with GWX3 desktop icon.
Result as above.

Attempt No3
Started with SH3 icon
Result as above.

Attempt No4.
Started from CD
Selected play from menu.
As before

All the above were attempts at loading the last saved game.

I then uninstalled SH3 Commander and tried again using both the GWX3 and SH3 desktop icons and CD with the same results.

Next I tried to load the penultimate saved game using the GWX3 and SH3 icons and the CD but got the error message each time.

The problem seems to be related to the SH3.exe file. See the error message above.

I hope that some one can help but I think I've lost everything.

But if the answer is to uninstall everything and start again I don't think I can face that. This is my forth or fifth career since I started playing mid year and every one has ended with a crashed game.
