3. High red mod.
4. PA upgrade/patch (SubSim pack)
My mistake.

The order should be:
NOTE: Relevant to my Windows 7 system, hardware may matter if it installs at all

1. SH2 full install
2. SH2 Patch 1.1 (SH2Patch1.1)
3. SH2 Hi-res mod w/o PM 1.03 (SubsimHighResComb_11SP1)
4. PacificAces_RC4
5. PacificAcesPatch11

Works fine now. Note you should save these whole installed versions. If you trash one, you simply copy the save back into the game's directory.

EDIT: To have SH2 and Pacific Aces:

1. Install full SH2 to default directory.
2. Install SH2 official patch 1.1
3. Insatall Hi-res mod (SubsimHighResComb_11SP1) w/o PM 1.03 selected
4. Copy C:\......\SSI\Silent Hunter II folder as 'SH2good install' or whatever for a duplicate backup file
5. Copy the backup and paste/rename to C:\......\SSI\Pacific Aces
6. Install PacificAces_RC4 to C:\......\SSI\Pacific Aces. I have to select C:\......\SSI\Pacific Aces, and then rebrowse to remove the 'Silent HunterII' that ends the file path.
7. Install Pacific Aces 1.1 Patch to C:\......\SSI\Pacific Aces

If you don't have a desktop icon start 'Pacific Aces 1.1' from C:\......\SSI\Pacific Aces\Shell\SH2
