SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - Windows Vista: Installing SH3 and Patching 1.4b

VonKnopfke · 03-01-08, 11:20 AM

To Vista 64 bit users that reported here successful operation of SH3:

I have installed SH3 to E:/SilentHunterIII, patched to 1.4b running as administrator - all successfully installed. Tried to set the compatibility mode to XP/SP2 and I get the same protection system error (this application can be launched with release...) . Tried to run as admin. Tried disabling UAC. Tried star force driver update but it reports none found.

Just can't get passed the protection system error. What am I missing ?

Nothing works - is there a way to run SH3 on Vista 64 bit ? Does SH4 run on Vista 64 bit ?
