I guess you are playing GWX here and not the stock game only?
Make sure your vanilla game is v.1.4 without Starforce before playing vanilla, or before installing any mods, I don't know what's the case in Steam.
It's worth to take time and read the big manual of GWX, especially you need to download and use additional files for SH3 Commander to be used with this mod (otherwise crashes will occur!). There is a dedicated GWX homepage where you can get these files.
If installed correctly with all pre-requisites, GWX is one of the most *stable* megamods.
For TC: I would only go to x512 if no ships are nearby and you are somehwat away from ports with heavy traffic; when ships are nearby I would go at max. x64. If you skip this then the game may crash sometimes (just save before and you are ok). Then if serious damanges are to be repaired in your sub, never go to high TC, it can get damages worse...
Also refrain from ALT-Tabbing out of the game, SH series don't like it and some strange things can happen.
