I'm considering building a new computer using an X79 mobo with an i7 socket 2011 cpu. It looks like Intel has stopped supporting WinXP with this new chipset so I would need to rely on Windows 7 and "XP compatability mode" for older games and sims. There's a long sticky thread here for SH3 and Windows 7 but it doesn't say definitively at the top of the thread that SH3 will run.

Will SH3 run in Windows 7 or not?
