Windows 7?

Been a couple of years since I've been here and trying to get back into sh3 but it's been a constant battle, all day yesterday trying to get the game to run with 7 ultimate, I kept getting the error message on the lines of only able to run on previous operating systems.
Have resorted to d/loading the no dvd fix and replacing files in the directory, patching sh3 with 1.4 (knew I still had a stock sh3 lurking around lol).
Now the game starts up right up to status bars finishing then a pop-up stating the game has stopped running. I am trying as an administrator which has produced a shield stuck on the sh3 exe file and clicked the compatibility with xp sp 3 box.
Apologies if this query has been posted previously but would grow a beard reading thru all the pages and I'm at my wits end with this and eager to return to the sea. Cheers.
