Make this a Sticky!

I just went through this advice and all is good so far ( 1/2 way through mission #3 )

No doubt bits and pieces need to be added and/or tossed as redundant buy those of you GURU's.

I am now trying to find out what level of GWX I have and how to add the
JSGME ( or how ever that is spelled ) along with the 16Km and othe cool stuff.

Right now I have a convoy to work on. Talk later!:subsim:

Thank you, dude! Thanks!

I have owned this DVD game for 3 yrs now and thanks to your easy step by step process I can play SH3 for the first time! I wanted to register just to send my aloha and say mahalo for taking the time and helping those like myself who need that extra detail with things like this (navigating computers). The only thing I would add is that to be absolutely sure to Run As Admin on step 7. Thats what made me fail the 1st time I tried this. The second time I ran the patch "Run As Administer" and it took!
Mahalo, Bra!

P.s. Now that I'm here, maybe i can stay awhile and get to know some of the members here.

THIS worked for me perfectly, thank you. I have Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and was extremely frustrated with this not initially working. Now how do I get the game to run at a higher res than 1024 x 768? I would like to be able to get it up to 1680 x 1050...

SH3 on Alienware Windows 7

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU to Blizkrieg4590 and StarLion45!!!
I bought a new Dell Alienware PC with Windows 7 and wanted to transfer SH3 over to the new system, but no matter what I did I kept getting a Protection Error. This went on for days until I finally read your postings on Windows 7 for SH3. I tried Blizkrieg4590's method and then I read StarLions. I loaded SH3 on to the C drive rather than the Programs (x86) drive and followed Blizkrieg4590's instructions. The game has never run better. THANK YOU BOTH!
