If you didn't already, then these are the first things to check, and I'm not saying that everything will work after that:

- Do not install the game in the Program (x86) default folder but chose another non-protected location to install the game; check that all game files are NOT write-protected; With the Steam version this will not apply I think.

- You must patch the game to the latest version, and get rid of any old Starforce DRM in the case you install from the non-Steam DVD version. For that read the stickies for SH3. Doesn't apply for Steam version.

- You must run in Win7 compatibility mode and Admin rights (right-click the game shortcut > Properties) ;

- You must apply the 4GB Patch before running a megamod like GWX, LSH3 or WAC; this also means you should reasonably have at least 6 or 8GB RAM.

- You must enter your grafic card settings and chose 'scaling with Desktop to Fullscreen' or similar or 'scaling with GPU to Fullscreen'.

- Finally you should install via JSGME a Widescreen mod to have grafics at 16:9.

Just do all that and come here again.
