I bet you're useing an ATI card, right? Try changing the mode of your AA in the CCC. Pick the lowest mode. Not sure, but I believe it's "Multi Sample". That should sort you out

What he said.......

I had the same thing happen after I installed a new gpu. I think I have my card set to 8x multi sample now and it works fine.

Hello everyone, family medical problems kept me busy for a few days but I'm back.

I'm currently running a Radeon HD6850 card that's working fine, handled the sim excellently before the crash and then clone operation. I'm running Windows XP Pro 2002 SP3 with an AMD Phenom II X4 940 3.01 GHAZ, 3.25GB of RAM. Can anyone tell me where the gamefix app is located? That sounds like a good first step to take before we work up to the more complex ones.

I'm currently running SH4 version 1.4, according to the start icon. BTW, this used to show up on the desktop but after the cloning it's in the game file, where it still works. Just an extra step required to open the file and find the .exe file. Game starts OK after that - except for this problem.

Just tried to start the sim using "autorun" in the "D" (disk) drive. The machine came back with a msg saying it could not find the "intro.dll" file, and that reinstalling the sim might fix this. Would finding this file and placing it in the correct spot on the drive correct this issue?

Why are you doing that?

You don't need the disk to run the sim. Are you trying to install it from the D: drive or run/play it from the D: drive? I'm not sure that I correctly understand what you are doing. If SHIV is installed to your C: drive, you don't need a Disk to run it. You just click on the SHIV.exe icon to fire it up.
