Upgraded CPU, now can't run SHIII...

It quits after the first (Ubisoft) intro movie, but before starting the second, with wanting to send an error report to Microsoft. Here are the report details...

I had a 1.4 Ghz CPU, and just upgraded to 2.0 Ghz. I thought it would make a big diffrence in running the game, I just thought it would be a more positive one, is all. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling (the uninstall didn;t seem to work right, but it dropped the game size in add/remove programs to 111 MB from 2.5 GB; running a repair install seemed to basically perform a reinstall, tho)

Suggestions?

Have you tried uninstalling it again? I doubt it has anything at all to do with the upgrade. You need to get SHIII off your computer completely and do a fresh install.

Yep... did that. Did a total uninstall, then reinstall. Same result. Blargh.

Delete the two intro videos, they are in data\movies\intro.

[d@rk51d3]

Same thing happened to me when I installed the hi-res .dll mod.

Had to remove the .dll, and then updated my video drivers to the "omega" ones.

[AVGWarhawk]

When we say complete uninstall....EVERYTHING must go! There is a file in your MY DOCUMENTS folder. Do a search of the entire hard driver and delete anything associated with SH3. Do the fresh install.

I would never have guessed it, but this was what did the trick! Thanks!

[HunterICX]

its off topic but its after the intro's

why does it takes so long to load that darn main menu?
never have seen that a menu need that much time to load.
takes almost 2 minutes to load it
