What are your specs? SH4 isn't happy with many laptop systems. If you have a good specs could be you need to reduce the maximum amount of memory that Vcache uses or allocate more memory...ect.

Did you do a search for that error?

WTF is windows 93?

EDIT: Looked at the laptop in questions specs. I put the problem on the video card.

we need your full specs to help you

there are many versions of the Toshiba sat pro so we cant help you without knowing more

the most important details we need are cpu, ram size, and video card

is it possible that your savegames where made on another version of sh4 than you use right now? Perhaps using some mods you dont have installed now?

just an idea ...

cheers

After looking into wth windows 93 is (its real name is Windows NT 3.1) I would say the problem lies with the OS as it is not supported for SH4. The only other thing that looked in question was the video card, but I suspect the OS is the culprit here.
