Default Alright computer guys...

My wife just allowed me to up grade to a "new" computer after a power outage wiped out my 10 year old previous model.

HP - Pavilion Desktop - AMD A8-Series

Specs:

2.0ghz AMD processor
Windows 10
8 gb ram
1 tb hard drive (SATA)
AMD Radeon R5

Is this good enough to install SH3, 4, and 5?

That should be more than enough to run SH3-5.

Might want to put a few more gb of RAM into your machine to help with the multitasking of daily issues

I was hoping so.

I have all three Silent Hunter games. Silent Hunter III, Silent Hunter IV, V Gold Editions.

Plus, I have the last five Command and Conquer games.

Thanks, I will install them tomorrow.

Sandman, honestly, I think you need twice that power in order to run SH4 and/or 5 at a steady 60 PFS with a resolution above 1024x768.

The mega mod link you gave goes to Wolves of steel.

I d/l TDW's generic patcher, but couldn't get it to work.

And I did follow his instructions. The last time this happened, (reformatted my hd) I printed out those instructions.

So far, it did run, but due to some mod install problems, I didn't get to start the game.

I know Open Horizons II is installed correctly, and TDW's UI also. (see: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...postcount=5715)

I could go back and take out the others and add them one at a time and run mod validator to see where the conflicts are.

I'll try anything once, twice if I like it.

Seriously, I'll try that.

Alright, call me stupid, but I've searched this forum, I've tried ever tip offered and, no luck.

Perhaps, somebody could post or direct me to step-by-step directions for installing SH5 on my computer.

See above specs for my computer and the mods I'm trying to enable.

I would even consider upgrading to OH II, 2.5.

Any help would be truly appreciated.
