Yes deleted that. The only difference to my system When I was running previous versions of GWX is I have upgraded my graphics card and soundcard. Am I right in thinking these are adequate to run the game?

Hey in that case, try updating your video driver.

I don't think your soundcard would be the issue.

I asume that you removed every last remnant of the old GFX & Sound drivers. Dependant on the make & model there are removal tools for both types of hardware. You need to revert to a point where, after a reboot, windows Plug n Play wizard notifies you of newly found hardware. Also, if you were previously using onboard (mobo) sound hardware, you need to disable this through the BIOS menu at the system post.

Lastely, it is entirely possible that you are running out af available RAM. 1GB is generally enough BUT if you have Windows managing your RAM and Page File size, it can & will crash any program that exceeds the set limits when it attempts to free up more resources for you. Set your Page File (aka Virtual RAM) to manual and at a figure around 3052 mb fixed. If possible make the page file resident on a partition other than your games location. Then reboot. To find you page file settings, navigate - Control Panel > System > Advanced > Performance > Advanced.

Sometimes that crash is not always a crash. First time i loaded up GWX 3 it took a very long time to load it still takes a very long time to load but the first time i was about to hit that reset button during loading the red line you sit and stare at while waiting or is that just me

Stopped and the red light on my pc stopped for a good couple of minutes I thought yep shes crashed, wait i'll give it more time and went of to make a coffee came back and game was started. So prepare to sit it out, but then again my pc aint some superduper rig.

My cpu is same as yours except I have 2gigs ram and 7800gtx card. I think more ram would help and sometimes ive found changing graphic drivers - going back to a older driver works for certain games

First of all thanks for all your help guys. I downloaded graphics card update and everything seemed to be ok but.... now I have got a SH3.exe application error. Goes as follows The instruction at"0x10016a27" referenced memory at "0x00000000" the memory could not be "written" Click ok to terminate. Any suggestions?? at the time I was submerged and attempting to raise periscope. Thanks.
