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.

Still no joy. Deleted SH3, ran SFRemove, rebooted, installed in C:, installed 1.4b, overwrote the 5 SH3 files with NO DVD rld-sh14. Ran like a well oiled machine. Had the 8 GWX files in a seperate folder on desktop. Checked all files with MD5Mate and all were valid. Still got the same note as before and GWX did not install. What do you suggest?

Perform a registry clean before attempting again

Also ensure you have deleted the save game files from C\MyDocs

I hope you made another folder to put it in!!! Using just C:\ as your SH3 base folder is gonna make a mess of your drive. Not to mention that the OS posses some restrictions on users that want to put files in the c: root folder. Make sure the install path during SH3 installation was atleast "C:\SilentHunterIIIorsomething".
