Aha! I think that may have been it - In the Nvidia control panel I've now set it to use the Nvida GPU as the preferred graphics processor for sh3.exe and now the line in the water has vanished!

This has introduced some other oddities, though - on starting the game, I now just see a black screen for some time, then it goes straight to the Living Silent Hunter loading screen - previously it displayed some kind of branding video I think. Also the game locks-up after loading 100% of the "Ships and Planes" section, have to kill it in task manager, and even that doesn't always work!

What Nvidia settings are recommend for this game?
