SH3 and GWX3 on W7

[mattinkent]

Hello all,

After more than a few years away, I decided that the Atlantic was calling again...I worked my way through SH5 which is, well, Ubisoft, innit? Then I tried SH4 but it's the Battle of the Atlantic I wanted so installed my Steam copy of SH3 and GWX3 on my new rig which runs W7 Ultimate. I read up - thank you all as ever - installed the ARB WideGui which works well, right up until I enter a mission and the I get a CTD.

You all know this, you all discussed it six years ago and I tried everything...4gb patch, V16B1 patch, I run as admin, have tried compatibility of W7, XPSP3 XPSP2...

Bearing in mind that my Vista disc is long since scratched to death and I won't install XP in my house network for obvious hacker reasons, plus building another computer just so I can relive the GW3 heyday seems...well, I have a three year old now. Not sure I have the time...I guess the question is: is there a solution now, is there anything I haven't tried...or is it over?


Any help, advice or sympathy gratefully received.
