Default Help installing GWX 3 into updated SH3

Hello All....I am a battered survivor of the windows 7 battles. I was finally able to install SH3 using the excellent instructions of Tony JF at forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/.../5 (if that helps) and SH3 is chugging right along. I installed it the the C: Program Files (x86) before I was aware that some people recommend to install in another file.

I am now trying to install GWX 3. I have downloaded all 8 files and run GWX3.exe. Whenever I do this, I get the following error message: "setup needs the next disk, if the files on this disk can be found in a folder other than the one displayed below enter the correct path or click browse."

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Put all the .bin files and the .exe file into one folder then run the .exe, it should work then.

As above plus GWX3.0 can only be installed into a fresh install of SH3, patched to 1.4b.

Click on my sig and you will be taken to the GWX website where detailed installation instructions can be found

Thanks for the quick responses

I previously had all 8 files in one folder. Did not work. It was in that configuration that I got that message.

I had added SH3 CDR (believe that is what it is called) before I tried to install GWX maybe that is why GWX is being so stubborn.

I'm on housework duty right now so will have to let you know when I have been dismissed

It could be that one of the parts is corrupt. Check using the md5mate tool and the verification codes on this page to see if they are all ok.
