Crashing to desktop

[Fihnakis]

Not sure what's happening but all of a sudden started getting CTD's when loading SH3. This doesn't happen everytime (about 50%). Nothing has changed with PC or game.

Your last save is probably corrupted.

Rename in career the person, for example: Werner Hahn to Werner Hahnx.

Then load the game with Werner Hahnx. Make a copy from the original Werner Hahn.

Good luck!

Ahh... wait, maybe you can try this too?

Hey Guys, I got the game working, I read on Ubisoft.com forums that the Intro and Logo movies are the problems with a lot of people's start up issues. I deleted them. It took me straight to the loading screen. It worked!:salute:

Rafael, but here's the problem that i have this problem while loading screen is loading the game..

The only thing I can think of, uninstall the game via DVD first.

Second, use ccleaner (free download) http://www.ccleaner.com/

And regvac http://www.superwin.com/fregvac.htm (download trial version).

Optional:
Click >> Start >> All programs >> Run >> type in field: regedit

Search (CTRL+F) My Computer for Ubisoft and for example hunter etc. etc. and delete manually everything concerning the game.

Reboot and re-install the game again.

Right click on sh3.exe (properties >> version tab must be 1.4.0.1.
