Hi everyone, long time no play! Getting back into SH4.

I have a laptop without a disk drive so I went ahead and bought the UPlay version to download ($3...it's cheaper than a disk drive).

I had trouble getting it to work. I tried running as an administrator and in compatibility mode with Windows XP (SP2), but neither action seemed to work.

**Last, I changed the resolution scale from 125% to 100%. Everything on my laptop screen is super tiny, but now the game works! This was not in any of the threads I had read thus far, so I hope this helps someone!
