Hi to all!

Hi I'm Dave

Have tried my hand at SH over the years starting with SH3, moved on to SH4 and SH5.

I have moved house, replaced a few PCs and find myself drawn to the sea once more.  In all the upheaval I find I can put my hands on SH3 and SH5 only but I recall that SH4 was set in the Pacific .  I don't remember trying SH5 up to now; probably bought it cheap and never got round to using it until now.

At the time of writing I'm "trying" to use it on my Asus laptop (Windows with, so far, little result.  This system has a generic AND Nvidia graphic facility.  The SH Detection Tool tells me that my graphics card is an Intel HD Graphics 4000; NOT the Geforce GT 650M (DirectX 11) that is also available which the sim should be able run under.  As yet I have not worked out how to get the sim to see the NVidia.

Does anybody have any tips to overcome this please?  Any help would be gratefully received.  I have a number of other PCs (Vista and Windows 7) so if there are no suggestions for the aforementioned problem I might just have to wait until I have those other systems fully up and running.

Looking forward, I hope, to being a full member of the clan.  Thanks for your time and happy sailing.

Okay, I seem to be up and running so I guess I'll check out some of the mods.
