I think you are placing the files in the wrong location. The set of files and folders that make your savegames are stored inside the: (My) Documents folder/SH4/Data/Cfg path.

You seem to be placing them in the SH4 Game's install folder. That's not where they are supposed to be stored.

Just open (My) Documents ("Mijn Documenten"). In Windows XP and Vista/7 it has different locations on your (C) drive. So without knowing what Windows version you have it is risky pointing you to a specific folder path on your drive. Anyway, in the "Mijn Documenten" should be a SH4 folder. (If there is none then make a dummy career to force it) In it is a "data" folder. And in that is the "cfg". That is where those files should go. (Like Jan Kyster's image, taking language differences into consideration)

Whoops, I missed the following!!!

I cleaned completely the D:\Games\Silent Hunter 4\Data\Cfg file and after that I placed the saved games (from D:\Mijn Documenten\SH4\data\cfg) into this Cfg file.
...
p.s. Can the difference between SH4 and Silent Hunter 4 directory be the problem?
Yes!!! With the first act you deleted critical game files. WernherVonTrapp is correct. Uninstall the game and reinstall it first! Then when that is done, copy the savegame files into the location mentioned earlier in my message.
