Right-click on the SHIII icon.
At the bottom select Properties.
At the top select the Compatibility tab.
Select Compatibility Mode.
Select Windows XP (Service Pack 2). SP3 might work as well, but mine runs fine with SP2.
Click Apply.
Click Okay.

I had problems until someone recommended this to me. My problem may have been different from yours, so it may not work for you, but it's worth a try.
