Hi dean, yep you seem to get that error now and again, I installed Fresh, following each step above in sequance, I don't know what i did that chanaged it but It did install to 1.4b no probs. All I can say is dont give up hope as it does work. You do need to update starforce seperatly then deinstall Sh3, before reinstalling Sh3 then it does seem to work, As to how it plays, very quickly, like i said i do have the odd graphics glitch but not enough to detract from the sim, and I sure this is more to do with new Vista graphic drivers than Sh3 itself. In Fact every game i have managed to run on vista, plays better and quicker with higher graphic options on than XP, They may have got something right at last, of course i do get more system crashes but what do you expect with a new OS, cant have everything
