Hi ViperDriver,
Never used the auto rollback feature, this might cure the problem. I'll give it one more try and if I still get crashed. I will continue playing without it.
I use SH3 Commander on my Desktop PC, running Windows XP with SP3 service pack and SH3 runs perfect.
But on this new Laptop, it doesn't seem to work.
I've also tried installing SH3 in C:\ProgramFiles(x86)|Ubisoft but I get the same results. This is the folder that SH3 is directed to on first install, same as for SH3 Commander when running the exe.
Windows XP doesn't use a C:\ProgramFiles(x86) Folder and games usually install to C:\ProgramFiles. Much easier to handle than the latest Windows systems 7 & 8.

I have set my Properties to run as XP and run as Administrator, no problem, so it must be the Commander program that is causing the problem on my Laptop.

EDIT: On posting this, I have just noticed My Avatar has changed again. This time to "Wild Night in Bangkok" with a photo of a drag queen. Never been to Bangkok, but had many a wild night in Singapore when I was out there in 1966/7 for two years. Don't like this one at all! Who chooses these? Some are good, others crap. Better get some more posts up to get rid of this one, me think's!!!
