Clutching at lifebouys before torpedoing SH5

I'm at the end of my tether with SH5 and really am thinking seriously about sinking SH5 for ever. After countless cleansing of saved games, campaigns, user names, registry entries and complete fresh installs I still can't get this abomination to run in anything over a basic install and minor mods.

Starting from scratch the first hic-cup is the Ubisoft System compatibility check, it's reading the wrong graphic driver update and saying my system is incompatible. I'm running:
Win7 64bit SP1
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.7GHz 64 bit
NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 1GB GDDR5 Driver 331.82
RAM 8GB
HDD Barracuda 7200.12 1TB
Ubisoft is saying my driver version is 131.82 and non-compliant .

Secondly I can load using JSGME a mod list as below but as soon as I use TDW GenericPatcher v 1.0.149.0 and the OptionsFileEditorViewer the game CTD as soon as I request Mission orders. Each time I modify anything before restarting the game I clear all saved games, campaigns and users then start a new campaign. Even after disabling all parts of TDW NewUI's 7.5.0 using JSGME the game still crashes before I can get any mission orders.
It's the same trying to use historic missions.
How can I post the generic patcher and File Editor files?

Can anyone help before this game is condemned for causing extreme stress, disappointment and frustration.
