Running SH3 on XP 64 Edition

Success! Running SH3 on XP64 required the following:

Finding Silent Hunter 3 v1.4b [ENGLISH] No-DVD/Fixed EXE and replacing
MissionEngine.dll, SimData.dll, StateMachine.dll, Utils.dll, and the SH3.exe file.

This resulted in "Cannot initialize 3d engine" error. This was resolved by adjusting the refresh rate on my monitor to 60 Hertz.

The game now launches and is patched to 1.4b. I'm going to install GWX3 now.

Thank you very much for your help!
