4)Run SH3 once (just to make sure it works + to create SH3 in My documents folder)
5)Install GW using auto-installer (as suggested no sea floor textures)
6)Enjoy GW

Your system should have no problems running GW however it will be choppy around ports and maybe convoys. SH3 is a RAM + CPU Hog.

Edit - also, you can remove the friendly minefields. These will cause FPS drops.
Follow this to the letter. I agree with danlisa on this. After second thought if all files are in good order it should at least load. Danlisa step 1 is crucial to success. Remove every trace that SH3 was on your hard drive. It sucks but it is the only way!
