I know nothing about Gold other than it is similar to SH4 ver 1.5 U-Boat Missions and the 'final' fixes to the US Boats.
In addition to what CapnScurvy said/asked, specifically about DirectX 9.0c drivers, and do you have a PC or Laptop, I have one or two questions:
Did it ask for an activation key - or some other registration number?
Where is it installed, what is the path?
C:\ >> a sub game >> Silent Hunter 4 ??
... or if you prefer in 'Detail View' looking at your HD C:\ in Windows Explorer:
C:\
a sub game
........ Silent Hunter 4
other folders
Program files
Windows
By any chance is the SH4 Icon on your Start button? Sometimes New Programs have their icons showing after a new install.
This is bugging me bugs, I want it to run for you.
