Seek and ye shall find.....its a bloody miracle!

I was all ready to go out next week and buy a new PC and was busy pricing up exactly what i thought i'd need.

Then, while using up downtime at work Ive read this forum upto about page 16 and finally discovered the reason why GMX wouldnt work.

My DVD stock game is rather old and not patched to v1.4.
My attempts to patch the game failed miserably until today....when I eventually read instructions to 'not only delete the current version but also the bits left behind......within mins the clean version was loaded and patch accepted....then came the nervy part of installing GWX.

It works....it bloody works

Just completed my first mission which i used as a test drive sinking 3 merchants before returning to wilhelmshaven.

Many thanks to all those gone before me for posting questions and big thanks to those who replied and mega thanks to the mods.


even my gramaphone works now
