Try to take a look at the sticky Windows 7 and Vista troubleshooting... My wild guess is that it might be in your interest.

Yup, lots of posts on this:

Long story short, it's easier to just re-buy the SH3 from some place like Direct2Drive that has no DRM.

Works on Windows 7 fine.

Works fine if you don't install it in the default instal folder. Install it outside of Program Files. Saves alot of agravation with modding.
