Copy the following into notepad...

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\... ntVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"EnableBalloonTips"=dword:00000000

...and save the file as disableballoons.reg
Double-click on that disableballoons.reg, restart your computer and no more balloons

The above changes fixed all my crashes and SH3 runs very stable for me now.
Unfortunately for people that want to try this is that the given key-path is truncated in the middle (... between "\Microsoft\" and "\Explorer\Advanced"). I fear the execution of this .reg file will cause an error and change nothing.
