SH3 works fine for me on vista x64. I didn't have to do anything special.

However, the GWX manual says:
If the game fails to run, download and install the StarForce Vista update from the StarForce developers‘ site: http://www.star-force.com/support/sfdrvup.zip.

Maybe that will help. Oh also you can check this thread:

Default Vista

You may want to consider removing SH3 from your computer, going to UBI.com and ordering the sh3 download for $20 (US) directly onto your computer. The downlload has run flawlessly, and comes upgraded to 1.4. I then downloaded GWX and commander. All work great.

Sure beat the heck out of banging my head against the keyboard.

Good Luck

Bite the bullet and buy the DD, you'll have no problems with it. Its worth the twenty bucks to avoid all the hasle of trying to play around with patching it and getting it to run correctly. Check the sticky at the top of the board about SH3 and Vista too.
