Fresh Install Problem

RWevodau · 09-07-09, 09:13 AM

Hello Mates!

I recently decided to get back into SHIII and use the GWX3.0 Supermod. Following the instructions with GWX3.0, I uninstalled SHIII, deleted the relevant folders, and re-installed SHIII from my original DVD. I then installed patch 1.4b, then GWX3.0. When I try to start SHIII, I get a Protection System error. It asks me to put the DVD disk into another drive and try again (I have two DVD drives). I do that and cannot get past the error.

I know this is not a GWX3.0 or SUBSIM problem, but I thought someone here may know something about this problem. Any suggestions?

One thing I did not is that in patching to 1.4b, even though the file name indicates us dvd version 1.4b, the installation program reports that it is updateing from 1.0 to 1.3. Is this just a reporting error, or did I have the wrong patch?

Thank you for any suggestions.

Robert
