Default Help!!!

Recently I bought and installed Napoleon Total War together with Steam.After 2 CTD's I gave up and went to bed.The next time I tried to load up SH3 all I got was a blank screen and a lifeless computer,not even Centre/alt/del.I had to restart the PC.I've since uninstalled TW and steam and SH3(twice) and installed the a fresh copy but all to no avail....the problem persists.I've checked my graphics card and that doesn't report any 3D trouble although I have my suspicions there.Never had any probs with SH3 before...any ideas????

You probably have some registry key conflict. Uninstall both games and have a go with a reg cleaner of your choice. Then reinstall SH3 and you should be golden

Uninstall the SH3 installation via the game disc option, not forgetting to delete the SH3 folder in C\MyDocs
