<< XP with 718mb memory & ATI Radeon 6800 graphics card with 32mb memory, Directx 9.0. >>

<< Win98SE with 128mb & Matrox Millenium 16mb graphics card. Directx8.0a. >>

Sorry to hear you having so much trouble.

I have heard that the newer ati / nvidia drivers dont work for sh2.

just guessing that your best bet is with the win98SE machine
because of the graphic card and

your gut instinct to try older drivers rather than newer is appropriate.
(make sure to save some system restore points b4 messing about )

i dont recall what version of Direct X is required for sh2.
double check that 8.0a is enough.

on my old machine i seem to recall HAVING to select my audio device and set channels to 16 instead of "primary sound driver" when sh2 config ran. never did understand why ...

also note when doing uninstall reinstall ,
you may need to use regedit to get rid of sh2 registry files.

hope that somehow helps ..
good luck
