Hi folks.
Try as I might, I'd damned in if can get SH3 to run under Windows 7. I've follwed the instructions here (http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php...D-Drive-Forums) but wit no success. SFDRVREM says there's no starforce driver found. I try to run the patch (silent_hunter_3_dvd_1.4b_us) and that comes up with an error "unknown version". If I try to run the game, up comes a protection thing saying nope, gotta run an old OS. I think the version of SH3 I have is 1.0, at least, that's what the readme says it is. I've read a number of threads that say try this, try that but it's all confused and inconsistent.

So, is there a definitive way of getting SH3 to work on Windows 7?

Thanks.
