So I thought for $2.50 I'd buy a new copy from UPlay. Nope. The product screen was going to send me to checkout for about a second then a second screen came up and said the product was no longer available.


Steam wants $9.99 so instead, I grabbed my external CD/DVD usb drive (my year old computer case doesn't have a bay for any kind of drive other than internal HDD or SDD) and did the disk install.


Once the game was on my SSD, I was able to install LSH3-2020 and DGui for 1920x1080 and all is right with the world!

Good going. I keep clean installs of SH3/4 on my WD passport drives/thumbnails that I can copy and paste at will if I ever need to reinstall the OS.
