Hi guys, I´m having some problems running SH3 on W7 64bits. I read this entire thread and couldnt find anybody with the same problem.

First of all I´m new to SH3 but not new to submarines nor naval warfare. I guess I´d skipped SH3 back in the days, going from TF1942 and Silent Service(s) directly to 688i HK, Harpoon, FC, SC, DW and SH4. I didn´t know SH3 was the best of the series.

Recently, I bought SH5 just to discover that its all bugged and flawed. Tried the mods, and despite getting some to work, I guess the problem with all the laggy UI and sluggish graphics are caused by my computer. Its just a damn good laptop but not so good when it comes to gaming. Its limited to its video card, a nVidia 330M. So I´m gonna save it for later. For now, I´m gonna try SH3.

So I bought from GF and had it set. But as soon as I run it, and get 3 or 4 kernel errors, but to my surprise it still loads up and runs fine I guess!!!! I´d tried running as administrator, on compatibility mode XP(SP3),... nothing. Everytime I start the game, I get these 3 or 4 kernel errors and soon after I OK´d them, the game loads up fine.

Is it normal? Did anybody else experience this?
I still didnt try the mods, nor the fixes,
