Running SH4 with TMO 1.7 on Vista 32 bits. Never had a problem. Only had to put two files dsound.ini and dsound.dll (X-FI files from Creative Alchemy made for Creative sound card) in the program directory to get 5.1 sound AND install directx 9.0c from Microsoft. The game runs like

you must run JSGME once for it to create the mods folder then unzip the mod to the desktop open that folder to find the folder that contains the mod it is the one with the data folder with it then copy it to the mods folder

Run JGSM
OR create the directory by hand.

something like this (depends on your install path)

"C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific\Mods"

It works.

Hey guys I have a good question, in regards to the windows 7 32 bit is it recommended to install it in the program files ? or do the same with vista 32 root folder first?

@larsonboram yes, is works better (to me)

@StevenLohr try download again mods, maybe one of them is corupt, they works for me and i have win7/64 and almost same configuration except videocard

What I do with Vista and I did this with XP. I extracted JSGME right to the main SH4 folder. Then, inside your main SH4 folder right click to make a new folder. Name it MODS. Extract any mods to this new MODS folder. Then use the JSGME icon within the SH4 folder to activate mods. Works for me. The reason I put all of JSGME inside my SH4 main folder, it keeps all my SH4 stuff there and I know were to find it.
