Has anyone got this working using any Nvidia drivers above version 191.07?

If so what res are you running at and what exactly have you done to get it to work.

Any advice and recomendations welcome.

I can run in my native res at 1920x1200 but the furthest I can get at 1360x768 is a totally black screen with the music playing or I get the "can not initialise 3d engine" error.

I have Nvidia 250gt with 197.54 win7 64bit drivers. Runs wide screen with no distortion of circles. I'm using MaGui 3.4 with MaGui wide screen as well.
My monitor is 16:9 ratio and it has a size and position setting in the monitor itself which I had to set to "auto" to make the MaGui wide screen work properly.

It can work! I highly recomend MaGui widescreen.

here is a link for installing on win 7 or vista trouble shooting. I had to use that win 7 guide get sh3 working at all...

Well, got it working. Went back to 191.07 drivers and all seems fine now.
