I have found that its not absolutely necessary to uninstall SH3 you can go down the multiple installation route, as I did and keep your GW1.1a installation intact should you need to go back to it. Just make sure you rename the main SH3 folder to something like SHIII[GW1.1a] and cut and paste the GW1.1a version of the SH3 folder in "My Documents" to somewhere safe. Then use the repair option on the installation DVD to install another version of SH3, patch then apply GWX.

After using GWX with no problems I have now deleted my old GW1.1a version to recover some disk space.
