Starters Vista doesnt know if the 1.4 patch is actualy installed, but when you start the game up it says its running it. but i cant install GWX because vista says the 1.4 isnt installed

run the patches and GWX installers with the "Run as Administrator" in the right click menu.

I had the same problem, and fixed it that way. Right click > Run as Administrator

It's an extra step, but it works.

Vista and SH3??

AAAAGGHH......... AAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!

Lmao!

i guess ignore the sound file an continue for the moment- as it sounds like you dont have a choice - hopefully it wont cause major problems.. if you experience any unexpected CTDs or errors during gameplay -we will take it from there.
Let us know how it goes mate
