So C:/Ubisoft/Silent Hunter ?

Or did you install it to C:/Program Files/Ubisoft/Silent Hunter?

If the latter option is true, don't install to the C Drive program files. Windows has a nasty habit of caching files from there/rerouting where they are installed. Find another location not in the program files and reinstall it.

Well, that was what Wernher was trying to tell me but it wasn't getting through to me until you mentioned it again. I will do this on my next install. I finally got the game to run w' the most of the mods by simply changing the compatability mode to vista. Oh well, at least it's working,...
actually I've got the graphics up full, the game looks great, I'll get TMO or something comperable loaded soon and then it should really take off. It's also playing fast, the mouse tracking, everything is playing as it should now. I will put the game directly on the C drive later and that should take care of any other hiccups. Great!!
Thanks, now I'm going hunting!!
