The problem here is probably one of two things.
It's possible that this is a permissions issue. Make sure you're running the game as an administrator.
The (imho) more likely problem is the NVIDIA GeForce 840M. Laptop video cards often have issues with PC games.
It might be that the game is trying to load in a resolution that's incompatible with your video card. Check "C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\SH4\data\cfg\main .cfg". You can find the resolution setting under the [VIDEO] header. Try changing the first two numbers to the current desktop resolution.
It also might be something that's solvable by a specific driver version. I don't know if anybody here is successfully using that specific video card. If someone is, it would be nice to know what driver version they're running.
