Install from DVD or Steam?

It might be another 9 year hiatus!

I installed from my DVD, applied the 1.4b patch, then did the Star Force removal.

I then tried running the game. Got the Ubisoft title screen, then the movie clip then the Silent Hunter title screen with the load progress bar. Plus all the music. Gets to the end of the bar, the screen goes black... desktop.

Did the 4GB patch. Tried starting in every compatibility mode. Changed my resolution to 1024x768. Nothing is working. Crashes to desktop at the end of the game loading screen.

System is an Intel i7-10700F with 16GB of ram, Nvidia RTX 2060. Obviously Windows 10...

I could use a hand on this...
