I do this so as to test the computer as I know I can slot a couple of tankers pretty quickly using the "turkey shoot" off the US coast 1941 or hitting a large convoy southwest of Kinsale Head, Ireland, 1941. Other than that, the game runs hunkey dorey right up to the CTD: no glitches or frame stuttering, freezes etc.

This always happens with modded GWX3. The same set up never caused any problems with XP.

However, I should like to add that since writing last, I have installed the latest version of LSH. So far, I've had no CTD.

Touch wood!

I get a similar problem, I have the no starforce pre patched sh3 with gwx3. I have win 7 premium 64 and an intel gma hd graphics card (?). Had to change resolution to 1280X 768 to get around the 3d engine thing. the game runs, i can play for a while, but at first the screen would go black like a crash, but then come back every time. eventually it crashed with an error message saying the computer shut down to pevent damage, and restarted in safe mode. I changed the monitor refresh rate to 60 hz, the graphics card was already there. since then the game still runs but will crash to desktop suddenly without any noticable cause. i have some optional gwx mods added thru jsgme, will try removing some of them but i think its something else, any ideas?
