Hello Eridon,

What I found out is:

Remember the 4 GB patch is only for machines with MORE than 2 GB of RAM. And it is NOT made for Windows XP, only for VISTA and WIN 7!

If you install the 4GB Patch, but having only 2 GB of RAM, it seems that SH3 will ALWAYS CTD after that. I could prove that on only one machine so far. I had to backup the whole windows after that. I was lucky to have an image. But I think SH3 will not work for you as long as Windows is not reinstalled.

Edit: I, of course, tried to owerwrite the patched SH3.exe with a fresh one, it did not work for me...
