What are your system specs? mainly your vid card.
Also 1.4 or 1.5?

my specs are 4 gigs of ram, NVIDIA GeForce 9300M GS 512MB, 2.0 dual core processor exactly model im not certain at the time, and the version of the game is 1.4 i believe, i haven't added mods or patched it at all yet. I've ran the game before on my computer without any troubles at all before i took it off my computer.

you uninstalled the game while you still had some mods installed so it did not uninstall properly and left files behind

when the game uninstalls it leaves ALL modded files there because they arent recognised, this includes the jsgme utility.

uninstall the game then locate your main sh4 folder in whatever directory you installed it to and manually delete it.

now your saved games are most likely all corrupted too by this point so open the documents folder and just delete that folder too.

reinstall the game, then install jsgme, then put your mods in jsgme and activate the ones you want :up:

After you go through and do what Webster suggested, you should patch the game to at least 1.4. I don't know if they sold a 'boxed' version of 1.4 but the 1.4 I have is a patch.

Ok, I'm having the same problem. I uninstalled, then reinstalled, then added the patch, but the game crashes when I go to change stations. This is a brand new computer that I'm on,and I am lost as to what to do. Any suggestions? Make it real plain for me, I'm not a computer genius here.

Did you go into Program Files and delete the UBISoft folder? Did you go into My Documents and delete the SH4 folder?

If not, then the aforementioned files are still there. You must delete them before you reinstall.
