Hi Shipmates,
I deleted everything SH3 related from my PC. Then I did another clean loading of the game from the Ubisoft CD Rom, I kept away from drive :C , and loaded it into my partition drive :G. I changed the compatibility setting on the .exe file to Windows 3 service pack, and am running the game as an Administrator. I have also added SH Commander as well, with the same settings. The game would be running perfectly (in 1024 x 786 resolution), one problem, and one problem only Vasily. Every time I change a screen I get 'Game Paused' and sometimes if I'm on the same screen for any length of time it will go into 'Game Paused' of it's own accord. You Shipmates have been more than kind with help and advice, can I ask one more favour and see if anyone has a solution to this problem? it's driving me crazy having to go into the menu and un-pause the game every 30 seconds!!! Any help will be gratefully received, I have made a couple of donations already for the help given, you are all stars! Cheers, Spurlash. (Norm)

Thank You all for your help; I tried the fix and copied and pasted it into the Data\ cnf file. Game would not run at all.
I deleted the game, in it's entirety inc SHCmdr, and did a clean reload, I ended up doing this three times, remembering to change the SH3 .exe file to Windows XP service pack 3 and running as administrator. Still no dice the game will not run at all. I think I've taken up enough of your time and goodwill, which I thank you all heartily for, but you all have your own problems to solve, and I cannot ask more of you. I think it's time to move on, although SH3 will always be my favourite game and gave me thousands of hours of pleasure, I might buy 'Uboat' but I know it won't match up. Thanks for all the help and goodwill you have offered me shipmates. Spurlash.

I wouldn't give up if I were you. It only takes a few seconds for someone to help. That being said, the instructions I said I used...I found the files, but not the actual instructions. I'll keep looking.

Big thanks to everyone who gave and offered advice with my problem of getting SH3 to run on Windows 10.
Can I give a big shout out here to S7rikeback who was tireless in his efforts and would not accept defeat, as well as his mate propbeanie. I was ready to give up but S7rikeback wouldn't let me. I'm really touched that so many were willing to help out a complete stranger, it's restored my faith in good people and I'm proud to be a member of such a group. THANK YOU ONE AND ALL. SPURLASH.
