you can use GAMEBOOSTER or ALACRITYPC to help shut down background programmes. i personally used ALACRITYPC - I have a new pc now, with alacrity i was able to shut down nearly 100 background progs' which freed up loads in terms of cpu and memory on my old rig - which was similar to yours now.

with the mods, there are loads. i am at the moment on a laptop so i can not flag up my mod list. im sure others will be along soon with their help!

good luck and welcome back once again!

You know, I don't see h.sies hardcode fixes in here, thats definitely a must for SHIII, once I get my PC and get SHIII and 5 installed, I will definitely be re downloading H.sie's mod. Not too tough at all to install either.

Great fix/mod though, adds immersion, fixes things like watch officer, repair and flooding times are now real, forces you to be going slow or stopped to use periscope or a blur will occur, in choppy seas you have to be below like 16m and level to load tubes, and more

@ Sailor Steve however, doesn't GWX and or Commander have a no disk patch already in it? I seem to remember booting up SH3 every time without disk whenever I clicked on commander or GWX to play
