it plays the video and then it goes to the loading screen when the red bar goes full, windows message pops up and tells me that Sh3 is not working any more.

Its on a windows 7 OS my system is a Phenom 2 3 core 2400, 6g ram, ATI Radeon HD 4600 w\ 1g of ddr 3 on board ram,

I used to play this game all the time on my xp machine, so i hope its a quick fix problem

Hello spaced monkey,

A thread with a similar problem like yours is here.
Scroll down a bit and see if this is the same thing.

mine wasn't a game error message but a windows 7 message telling me that SH3 has stopped working altogether, if i just wait 10 seconds it closes it down to the desk top

now if i play v 1.0 it doesn't crash after the loading screen, but v1.0 sucks big wind and i will not play it.
