hmmm, it sounds more computer/video card related than anything.

I didn't change my drivers, but i am going to look into that this evening.

Turns out my system exceeds the minimum requirements for the game, exceeds for recommended RAM, meets for recommended video card memory, even though my card is not listed (GeForce 8600M GT).

Very disappointing, and it also says laptop versions of the "listed" video chipsets are not supported... and the machine on which I have SH4 installed is a laptop. OK... at 17 inches it's more like a desktop replacement, but still "portable". It would be nice if they'd have considered laptop driver support, because not all of us are able to play on a desktop unit...

the cpu and video specs are ok but forget about the recommended ram, you need at least 2gb or ram to avoid ctd issues

also large mods will increase the specs you need due to the added content so keep that in mind.

as Task Force said, RFB might be more than your computer can handle, try FOTRS, TMO, or GFO mods and see how they run

FOTRS is a good mod. Great eye candy!
