Default GWX 2: install help

hi hunter's

just recieved GWX2 notification, with install instructions....

this is where it all turns to poopum for me.

ok:

1. do i have to uninstall SH3.
2. do i have to unistall old GWX and SH3 Commander.
3. should i unistall myself to pub for cider intake. ( sorry...)
4. do i need to perform roll-back, before hand, for any of these, except no.3.

in other words i'm not quite sure what to do with my set-up. this is what has been sent through today - 9th dec:

GWX 2.0 mod file URL's and installation instructions.
1. Create a fresh/brand new installation of GWX patched to version 1.4b
2. Go into your "My Documents" and delete the "SH3" folder you find there. Old Silent Hunter III careers will not be compatible with GWX 2.0
3. Create a new folder on your desktop and label it "GWX 2.0"
4. Download the "GWX2.exe file and all seven .bin files to the folder you just created on your desktop.
5. It is recommended that you burn these files to CD's or a DVD for safe-keeping
6. Double click the GWX2.exe file and follow the directions that appear.

these instructions appear - to me, on the surface, easy to follow, when actually they assume i know what to do, i.e No1. Create a fresh....

does this mean create a fresh install of recent ( old ) GWX or install new GWX ??

it might be a good idea to give us newbs a simple - 'hold my hand as i cross the road' explanation with install.

i also understand this may be a complete pain in the derrier for someone to do, but...
it would help enormously, i think ?

any one else agree/diagree ?

cheers !

p.s i'm not 'avin a go..!!
