Glad to see you had a win hienz!
I had to go through the same process a couple of years ago to get it to run on an old lappy with win7 someone gave me.
I read your post in the 'comments' forum and was about to start sifting through my old posts to see what I did to fix it, when I thought I'd better see if you reposted here first! That just saved me a heap of effort
Hope you enjoy your old stomping ground; SH3 is definately worth the trouble!
