sh4.exe in your main game folder is the executable, the actual program that runs the game. It was designed a few years ago, before we users tended to have computers with more than one gigabyte of RAM, so that executable only uses a fraction of your machine's available memory. Making sh4.exe large address aware means telling the executable to use more RAM. I always try it as one of the first steps in troubleshooting issues with older programs, along with running as administrator. If you have three gigs of RAM I don't think it can hurt, and may help.

Awhile back I found this little program that makes it very easy: link

I hope that helps. Anyway, it solved my green screen issues.

"Do what I do." The ship thought about this for a few milliseconds and then, after double checking all the seals on its heavy duty bulkheads, it began slowly, inexorably, in the hazy blaze of its lights, to sink to the lowest depths.
