Windows XP Pro
ATI X1300 pro
1 gig RAM

You also need to make sure you got the correct patch depending on whether you purchased the game online or whether you have the DVD version, as well as getting the patch for U.S. or not.

Also make sure you have deleted or rename the SH3 folder in C\My Documents.
