I do know one nVidia card that won't run SHIII. The GF MX420 64mb card in my Compaq Presario 6000, and no fan on this card. An error pops up when installing the game that the card will not support running SHIII.

Capt. Frank, I know of others running SHIII with the same card as you with no problems either. A good GPU it tis.

My Radeon 9600 (I know, not what the OP has.) Works OK, but the GPU resets about once an hour. More in vannilla, less since I got NYGM 2.0.

Ran for a while on GeForce 6600 128Mb, upgrades to 2 x GeForce 7600GT 256mb. Plays great, less stuttering....

I actually had that card (256 MB) when SH3 first came out, and had no problems with SH3 on it. Maybe the error lies somewhere else?

I have a 6600GT PCI-Express, and it's all fouled up...when I load the game the help menu pops up and I can't close it...I think this may be b/c the save file I use is from a patch and I had to re-install SH3...for some reason it won't let me patch it...

It is not hard to beleive at all since one of my computers running fine with geforce3 ti-500, and I never had a bow-spray bug problem with this card.
Its GF4-TI4200 128MB here. And everything is working fine. I had not a single glitch - sometimes low frames in port and in smoke - but less than could be expected.
