Hi, I've had SH4 since it first came out, but now with a new PC running Win7 x64 I have a problem trying to install and patch the program.

The vanilla 1.00 (tin box collectors edition) that I have installs and runs fine on the PC, only when I run the update 1.4 that I have problems, I get the UBI logo, the video plays and then the screen goes black and I get a message from the monitor on the screen "Unsupported Mode" and I cannot stop the program or alt/tab out to the desktop I have to reset the PC and reboot.
Is there a command line I can put in the startup to force the program to use a mode supported by my monitor?

Oh and one thing, starforce does not apply to sh4, just try to install the game somewere else, for example c/games or something like that.

Thanks, I uninstalled, regedited out any remaining SH4 there and rebooted re-installed and it failed again, then rememberd reading about the Data folder in Documents and had a look there. Under the Main.cfg there was an entry for [Video] 1920x1080 @30Hz and that is too slow for my monitor. I uninstalled, regedited and removed the SH4 folder from Documents. Reinstalled without the Game Shadow then patched to 1.4 and I'm good to go now.
Now the entry is

Resolution=1920,1080,60,22
