Frequent CTDs

Hi.

whenever i play sh4, minutes into the game, it causes a ctd:

Sh4 has encountered a problem and needs to shutdown. if this occurs again, please contact your administrator. we've created a log file that you can send to microsoft, etc.(you know the details).

however, when i double click gu.exe, the game won't start at all, and says this:

error: error code 000x00023 (or something similar)
registry missing values. Reinstalling the application might help the problem (or something similar)

I have the 1.04 patch. I checked all of the optional installs when i installed sh4 (direct x, acrobat reader, windows codecs, etc) but when game shadow installation came, i skipped that...

I have the latest updates for direct x, nvidia, microsoft update, etc.

my install is 100% legal (no cd cracks or any of that junk)

there is no over clocking.

there is no spyware.

i have defragmented, run enditall, etc.

i am playing it on a recently self-built system:

Core 2 duo e8400
2gb ddr-800 pqi
geforce 9600gt KFA by Galaxy
maxtor 60 GB 4200rpm IDE PATA
gigabyte p35 S-series
antec 550 Basiq PSU

does anyone have a clue?
