Why do you run Wine? I guess at least for Windows, but SH3 is no 16bit game.

You are on Win10 - so why do you try to run the game in virtual XP?

Your Celeron CPU is not capable to deal with Win 10, virtual XP and SH3 simultaneously.

I refuse to do support for Win10...

... but deinstall SH3 (and the wrapper?), run CCleaner to purge the registry and try to install SH3 as administrator into C:\games\ and start the game. Try the compatibility mode for XP or 7 only if necessary (right-click SH3.exe\properties\tab compatibility).

You've got DX9 installed - fine! - if it is from the SH3 DVD - make sure to get the latest DX9.c version from Microsoft.

Your laptop is a low end office version with a very cheap CPU - it may not be possible to play SH3 on it.


Edit: and if you are asked again for a DXDiag - there is a button to save the results to a simple textfile.
Well - you found a workaround...
