pardon me for jumping in here.....

i just purchased a refurb HP laptop and installed SH4 under a non-admin account to use for normal, everyday stuff, like playing SH4.

first time i launched it i got the red-screen-of-death.
then i noodled around (technical term) in the Properties-Security window and found a solution. this may work for you.

right click on sh4.exe and click on the Security tab.
Click on the Advanced button near the bottom of Properties-Security.
Click on the Effective Access tab.
Click on the Select a User link. enter the local user name you are using on your PC. click ok.
then ok yourself back out to the desktop.
launch sh4.exe.

try it.
