Dang it! Didn't see this thread until just now.
Mods please remove my post in the General area.

Okay, I have Win 7 64-bit. I have installed a clean install of SH3 and also installed the 1.4b patch. I downloaded the StarForce removal tool and it says StarForce isn't on my comp. No idea if that is true or not. At any rate, I get this message:

"Error - This application can be launched with a release version of Microsoft Windows 95/OSR2.1/98/ME/NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 only."

I tried changing the resolution, but that does nothing. I get the same message. I tried changing to EVERY Windopws compatibility setting but it isn't fooling the error message. Same thing comes up. I even installed Direct X 9 thinking maybe something was missing from there. No help.

So what is the magic that has to be done to get SH3 to run on Win 7 64-bit. Or is it not ever gonna happen?
