CapnScurvy has the best advice, just buy the SH4 Gold in a box. It is already updated to ver 1.5 U-Boats plus many improvements to the US boats from 1.4.

I am surprised ver 1.0 didn't require an Activation registration code that looked like this:

'Activation key': VT5K75KKLTUGQOY2JC7OTM2H0JGUXU4
(I just made this one up)

I bought mine from D2D - digital downloads and was required to enter an activation code... there was also a multi-player code.

I did buy the DVD too, but never opened the box because I thought it would be such a wonderful game, a 'collectors item' - little did I know it would require four patches, and a fifth 'add on' that needed to be purchased, and also needed to be heavily modded.

After entering these codes, SH4 ver 1.0 started right up.

So, your file structure looks like this, right?:

C:\
a sub game
.... Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific
Program files
Program files (x86)
Users
Windows

If so, that is correct. Someone with a DVD install should chime in about the password - activation code, shortly.

Let's see........
