This makes no sense. His machine is a 1.8ghz dual core machine. SH3 is a single threaded app so dual core won't help much at all, but a 1.8ghz cpu is TONS for sh3.

I play SH3 on vista, and I have had no problems, except for finding decent video card drivers. I've read installing can be a problem, but I just copied the whole program files\SH3 directory on my old machine over to vista and it worked great

Unfortunately this is another false performance "tweak". Unless you are ripping DVDs or something silly while playing SH3 increasing the process priority will make no difference at all.
