cannot seem to start missions at sea

after pouring over the faqs and key word searches, I've finally decided that the collective is my only hope for fixing this problem.

after a catastrophic computer crash (reformat and reinstall) I finally have SH3/ GWX and SH3 commander reinstalled and running. everything is going fine except I cannot start any mission at sea! not even the first mission.
I'm reluctant to do a reinstall of SH3 as it's from Amazon downloads and thats kind of a pain.

the game play is basically
1. start up SH3 cmdr and create (select) commander.
2. roll back (Don't recall where in the order this is done)
3. select career from the SH3 menu and start the mission.
4. the sub pen/Dock is always the starting point.

I've made sure that the start missions at sea box is checked.

I didn't normally start missions at sea but I'm getting tired of that jog and all the false sightings that mess with the time compression so this problem may have been around before and I just never caught it.
any thoughts or experiences with similar issues?
