    It sounds like you can play until the first pop-up message (Farming Results) - do you see the message advising of your funds for this year?

    Sounds odd.

    You could try reinstalling incase it is a corrupt file?

    I'd also try it with the sound off / a different video mode.

    I know I am doing a thread necro here...but...


    I am running Shogun on my work Win XP SP2 machine AND my home Vista Ultimate box........how?

    Using Microsoft Virtual PC (which is free).




    What you need....

    Windows 98 Disk...(or ISO, IMG, ect.....).......
    Also having an IMG, ISO, or the actual Shogun disk's will help.


    After that you can just google the instructions, but trust me, its easy.


    What I did was make an ISO image of my Windows 98 disk then mount the image in Daemon Tools. Then I started up Virtual PC and went through the setup.

    Then I installed Windows 98 normally on the virtual hard drive.....

    Does STW run in Direct3D mode under Virtual PC or are you using software mode? I've thought about running it (and MTW) under Linux via VirtualBox but the fact that Direct3D probably won't work at all has always put me off even trying.
