SH3 and Win7

Bear · 09-29-17, 12:52 PM

My gaming computer died a couple of years ago and since I'm on SS it took me awhile to save up for another one. However, now I'm pissed, my SH3 will not play on Windows 7. My attempts to get help from ubi were no help. I don't understand. SH3 will load on my new rig but when I try to play it locks up and gives me a wrong application message. I have tried all the stuff that windows has suggested to no avail. I really would like to have SH3 back. Anyone have useful suggestions?

You will just have to do some digging through the thread to find what your looking to obtain.

I have it working on Windows 7 with no problems at all - Home Premium, I think. What is the problem, exactly?

Whoops! Should have read the post correctly.

I have had similar where I installed MODs and so on. Have you tried with a bare-bones installation?
