5. Do no use Alt-Tab.
6. Do no make enteries on a Forum while playing SH3.
I've got XP on both my laptop and my desktop, and they both work fine. Maybe I shouldn't say that, cuz I'm jinxing myself.

Hmmm. I've not had the 'submerged' problem - yet...
I just yesterday saved "while in contact with the enemy", cuz I just didn't have a choice. Had to leave the house. Luckily, it seemed to be OK when I went back to the 'battle' this morning. Maybe I should be 'knocking on wood as I write this.
I've always had a bogus career going as a test bed while out on patrol with my real hero.
And that last one - I've never had any luck going to desktop while actually in-game. The old [Windows FLAG - M] keystroke combo works, but it seems to make the whole game transition unstable and scares me. I sure don't want to lose my "hero" to some Windows instability thing. GASP!!!

But, I'm going to take all this to heart and try not to screw up my hero's campaign by viloating these rules.

Thanks for the tips.
