So, I'm back here again seeking a solution that allows me to dive into the waters of the Pacific once more.
have to ask the table-stakes-questions, no offense intended:

have you reviewed the sh4.exe Properties and
1. unchecked the Read-only box
2. on the Properties-Compatibility panel, have you selected one of the older versions of Windows such as Vista or Win7?
3. assuming that you are an administrator on this PC, have you tried the Properties-Compatibility Run AS Administrator?

Lastly, (actually, this should be firstly) is SH4:WOTP installed in a folder not in \Windows folder which is the default?



unrelated to this, since we both live in the Chicago area, we should get together for a beer. Neutral site. send me a PM if you are game.
