Be more specific. OS, define "load," etc.

OS = win xp sp3
version 2.2.4.0

yes, i have read the faq, and help and I still cant get a
map to load up when i start a new game.

by load, i mean, you put the map.gz into the map folder, and
then run warzone2100.exe

typical install, and ive not changed anything
yet, no new map

let you guys know.

mods, while nice, can be difficult to implement!

No... that is wrong.

The maps *must* be in only ONE location, and that is your 2nd pic. (your config directory in /my documents/...)
However, it is *still* wrong. Do not place those extra *.addon.lev files with the .wz files! They do not belong there, and can cause issues with the game.
There is already the correct *.addon.lev file inside the .wz file. That is all the game wants.
The way you do it, it sees 2 files, and it loads everything up twice!

Hope that clears things up?
