I should have come here first. Things are starting to make more sense...
In following steps given elsewhere I may have done too much too soon and got myself confused in the process. Having said that, I am however concentrating on the vanilla and patches in order to build a foundation for mods to follow.
OK. Step by step... and a new problem jumps out - First the above problem, then... "This program cannot update the installed version of silent Hunter III US DVD v1.0 to v1.3 because of the following reason: Program files (x86)\Ubisoft\Silent HunterIII\data\Menu\de_menu.txt: unknown version."
But the control panel shows v1.4.
Edit: Got the European patch and it installed, now showing exe as v1.4.0.1. Running game brings up original problem. I have tried running it in compatibility mode for every single option, from W95 to W7. Nada.
I also tried with and without ticking the desktop comparison but no dice.
Orders?
