Can't initialize 3d engine Windows 8

Has been a very long time since I have been here, You last visited: 09-04-2011 at 09:12 PM, lots of new people. So I have been through the forum and red just about every post on how to fix this and yet I can't get it too work. I am using a monitor that goes far beyond that of 1024x768. I have tried using the files:

dx9res10_2.zip and SH3_XPSP2_Res_Fix_for_1.4b.zip

and both do nothing, the game just crashes.

There is no option to rollback the driver to a previous driver since the machine requires the latest.

How is one supposed to get this running on Windows 8, most of the threads related to Windows 7 which serves as pretty much the same, yet no solution. I am surprised there isn't a sticky for this annoying issue which has been going on for how long...

Any help much appreciated, thank you.
