I have a 7300 and have no problems with it but it is on my email PC and I would never think of running GWX with it.
Just not up to it or at least at a level I could accept--------IMO

Its really frustrating (as always with these things ) I will re-install SH3 without the GWX mod and see what happens.......can this be a GWX problem? SH4 runs just fine.

SH3 is a graphics intensive game
The engine has been tweaked for SH4

I run a 7300
Try lowering hardware acceleration down a little

Wierd...........I did a re-install of SH3 and the 1.4b patch and it seemed to run fine. Then I put the GWX Mod on and it looked different a bit from before, the dials didnt pop-up (bottom right of screen) I got half way to my search area and #$%%^ the screen went wierd again and I had to reboot. I tried beforehand lowering the accelarator........thanks for that tip, but eventually it didnt help with the problem, as I said SH4 runs fine, but I much prefer the SH3 world .........

Cheers

S!

PS This has taken up all my play time

There is a possibility that your graphics card is overclocked or overheating and might be already near death.

I checked that and all is running fine (and with other sims too) as I said I tried all different nvidia drivers but doesnt seem to help with SH3 and GWX Mod....this is becoming an obsession, and very time consuming, as always, Im still trying to figure out whats wrong :hmm:

Cheers

I run a 7300 gs and it works fine most of the time although sometimes I get some freeze frames.
You should check your card settings, in nvidia control pannel you can customize the card with different settings for each game installed.I ve found that checking the "let the aplication decide settings" tab works better.
Hope this helps
