Old system help

Ok, I think that something went wrong with your installation and I would recommend two things to do.

1.) Reinstall the game completely. Then before installation turn off your antivirus because you already know that copy you have on your disc is safe. Sometimes antivirus programs can do some damage to instalation for some reason. Install game and after instalation dont update it or delite intro videos, just thry does fresh instalation work. If it work than proceed with updates, adding mods, etc...

2.) If fresh installation doesn't work again, and if it is possible for you borrow copy of game from some of your friends and try to install that one and if that works great if not it may be even some hardwer issue that causing problem.

Ok, Update.

I have been through the system and updated graphics drivers and any driver that I could still find even the dvd driver.

I have also uninstalled and re-installed again.

still no joy

I have also brought another copy of SH3 from ebay, hopefully without the security program. ( its the revival copy) So will wait for that to arrive.

Until then its back to farming sim17 on the other pc.

Hi.

For future reference, the error was caused by a problem with the sound card.

Purchased a new sound card for £5 and problem fixed. no more issues.

Thanks for the help, am now the proud owner of a XP system specifically for silent hunter 3.

Happy hunting

That's good to hear!

Glad you got it sorted out. Now all you have to do is survive a job with a 75% mortality rate. Good luck with that.
