Hello all,

I have been looking forward to playing SH3 again for the past several years, but my old PC wasn't quite fast enough to handle the game properly.

I recently built a decent machine (Intel I-7 960, ASUS Sabertooth MB, 12GB DDR3 RAM, EVGA GTX570) using Windows XP Pro 64 Edition as the OS. When I try to run the game, I receive the following error:

"System Information was not obtained because of "msinfo32" execution error."

I went into the SH3.exe file and set the compatibility to Windows XP (I also tried Windows 95 & 98), but to no avail - I keep getting the same error.

Any guidance you could offer would be greatly appreciated. I have the game patched to 1.4B and GWX3 loaded. I'm ready to play!

Thank you very much for your help!

David
