Then remove all traces of Silent Hunter using Ccleaner again by cleaning your registry with Ccleaner (backup registry when it asks you), then try to install SH4 Gold fresh.
Yes, I'd try that but wouldn't bother with saving any of my mod files.

After a complete uninstall (including the Documents/SH4 folder); then cleaning the Registry; then a new reinstall, I wouldn't be too quick in putting back anything that was left over from the first game experience. I think (just for superstition sake ) I'd re download everything (I like saving the compressed downloads....to go back to later if needed), including JSGME, once I was sure the game will launch.

Probably wouldn't hurt standing on one leg, and whistle Dixie either!!
