Hi Peter,

thanks for the tips.

I can confirm that SH3 is running as admin, and in compatibility mode. The game has function perfectly fine for over 40 patrols so far.

I have performed a clean install of SH3 and GWX onto another (newer) hard drive, with no access protections or restrictions.

Editing the GPU settings with the AMD equivalent has no effect.

I can successfully load into a patrol having made no upgrades to my sub . Only upgrades that cause any cosmetic changes to the sub I.E change of Flak gun, or addition of a radar. Since this only happens when loading into a patrol, I'm guessing that this may be a graphics issue? Compounded by the fact that when changing the Flak gun (only), I can load into a new patrol ~50% of the time. But, when I do get into a patrol, the game becomes incredibly unstable, graphically or otherwise. Major graphics glitches and crashes to desktop occur.

It would not be the first time an older game does not play well with AMD graphics cards.
