Hi. I got this game yesterday and it was running fine.
This morning however, every time I click to run the game, it plays the ubisoft thing and then the screen goes black for a few seconds, then an error box comes up saying that there has been a problem and it needs to close.
I have the latest patch and have tried reinstalling the game but it doesn't work.

Any ideas? Thanks

Hello palmermike,
Check and see if your starting the game using gu.exe or sh4.exe.
Read this post and see if it helps.

Thanks for replying but I'm afraid I've already tried that and it doesn't change anything :s

What is your operating system? Do you have enough RAM? What are the specs on your hardware?

Try going into the folder where you have SHIV installed and go to I believe Data/Movies/Intro and deleting the two files there and then see if the game will start. The are the two movies you see at the beginning when SHIV loads. Removing them should allow you to start the game.

Thanks Tambor198, that seems to have done the trick.
