Hi. Thanks for the quick response.

Yeah, I've patched it to 1.1, but what exactly do you mean 'affinity'?

Can you talk me through that?

Thanks

CTRL ALT DELETE to bring up your task manager, then go to processes, select SH3 (while its running) and set affinity.

Thanks again guys...

Affinity didn't work. But nice to know about that now.

As for XP - no can do really - although I may consider dual booting it - one for games the other for work. But that's another 15gb eaten up. Ho hum... Looks like tomorrows gonna be a LONG day...

All this for some virtual subbing...Besides, the game box states vista compatible, and the 1.83 is within the minimum specs.

I guess format reinstall time.





Frakin' computers...

I would have to say it is probably the video card as well if the affinity did nothing. I have a 1.83 core duo set up and am not having problems playing the game unless I use the highest graphic settings. Sorry it didn't work.

Your intel gfx card doesn't support the shaders the game needs to render correctly. You'll never be able to play it on your laptop.

Hi Captain...

I believe the problen lies with your Video configuration. From what you have posted you may be running with a Intel Integrated Graphics setup. If this is the case you more than likely will not be able to run either iteration of SH - they dont support intergrated video.

Sorry Mate...
