I just put both files in the SH3 install directory and edited the cfg file to set the resolution I wanted to use.

[config]
; ResX: Horizontal resolution setting
; ResY: Vertical resolution setting
; useFiltering: Use linear filtering for UI elements
; enableScreenshots: Hook printscreen keypress to save TGA screenshot
resX=1920
resY=1200
useFiltering=1
enableScreenshots=1
screenshotPath=.

; setGamma: Override gamma ramp
; gammaRed: Red channel gamma (1.0 = normal, decrease to add brightess, increase to darken)
; gammaGreen: Green channel gamma (1.0 = normal, decrease to add brightess, increase to darken)
; gammaBlue: Blue channel gamma (1.0 = normal, decrease to add brightess, increase to darken)
setGamma=0
gammaRed=1.0

Hi, just read this thread about the res fix for SH3.
I know in running the sim in a window gives the resolution at the top of the window.
How do you know what resolution you're running at in full screen mode ?
This has bugged me for some time, I've installed the fix and edited resX and resY,
however I'm not confident SH3 is running at that res.

the resolution you type in the cfg file must be the same reolution your desktop is at or else you will get a ctd.

I can use my LCD to check the resolution it's running. Not sure that will work for you, but mine has a menu button where I can control brightness and stuff like that. There is also something called "information" where the current resolution, frequency, serial number and total running hours can be found.

Personally I think that the game looks a little bit better in 1280*1024, at least on my screen. But it's not a huge difference from 1024*768 and I'm not really sure it's worth losing the ALT-Tab ability for this difference.
