SH4 is rather persnickety when it comes to graphic settings. Your video stream should match, as much as possible, from the display's "native" resolution (Windows will note it as "(recommended)"), to the graphics card being set to that, to the game matching that. If you don't have an exact match in the game, get a smaller ratio, such as you have a 16:9 display, use a 16:9 resolution in the game. It is best if you do not "overdrive" your display with a larger resolution. You can also experiment with the Graphic Settings in the game on the Options menu, and try different combinations.

A really big, big issue when dealing with any sort of an "update" in your game files is to be certain you do it as Ubisoft instructs. If you had a v1.4 of the game, and applied a v1.5 U-Boat Missions Add-On, you MUST do it the way they have it outlined in the update ReadMe. If you had a v1.4 and want to use a v1.5 Gold Edition over the top of the old install, you shouldn't. Un-install the old, delete the old folders, and install the new.

Also, be certain that you have deleted the old data out of the Save folder, which by default will be in "C:\Users \UserName \Documents \SH4" or from the short-cut in File Manager. It might be something as simple as that.
