try uninstalling the latest update and see if that works.

Most updates are security fixes and it's not a good idea to uninstall them willy-nilly (hehe don't get to use that word often ). It's more likely to be a problem with SH3 patching than anything else.

who is will-nilly?
The origin centres around the first of those meanings. There are many spellings in early citations - 'wille we, nelle we', 'will he, nill he', 'will I, nill I', etc. The expression also appears later as 'nilly willy' or 'willing, nilling', or even, in a later humourous version 'william nilliam'. The early meaning of the word nill is key to this. In early English nill was the opposite of will. That is, will meant to want to do something, nill meant to want to avoid it. So, combining the willy - 'I am willing' and nilly - 'I am unwilling' expresses the idea that it doesn't matter to me one way or the other.
The Latin phrase 'nolens, volens' means the same thing, although it isn't clear whether the English version is a simple translation of that.
The second, 'in an undecided, haphazard manner', meaning of willy-nilly arrives from the first. The changeable 'this way, then that way' imagery of willy-nilly behaviour fits with our current 'haphazard' meaning of the term.

Hey Guys, I got the game working, I read on Ubisoft.com forums that the Intro and Logo movies are the problems with a lot of people's start up issues. I deleted them. It took me straight to the loading screen. It worked!
