Do you mean the 3D engine? Windows 7 has a newer version of DirectX than what comes with the SH5 DVD. There is a subfolder called directx on the DVD. I have no idea how directx is packed onto the sh5 download.
I have fixed directX issues and 3D initialization issues with all versions of silent hunter 3
or newer when reinstalling the directX that came with the original DVD.
If that does not work, try to reinstall the 1.2 patch. If that does not work, uninstall game. Uninstall Uplay if applicable as a separate program entry in programs and features. Shutdown. Reboot. Install game, patch. Get the latest UPlay from Ubisoft and install before playing game.
Uplay links
Copy your SH5 documents folders and filles to another folder just in case SH5 erases them during an uninstall.
