I do not have Sacred installed anymore, but I have Sacred 2, and for me and Windows 7 I have to run the game in compatibility mode for it to work right, so maybe it is the same thing there. So if you have not tried that already then just right click on your main exe file for sacred, which I assume will be called Sacred.exe and then go to the properties and then the compatibility tab. Under that click the check box that says "Run this program in compatibility mode for", and just let it be on Windows XP SP3. If that does not help then I can try installing the game here and seeing if I get a similar result.

You can try to reinstall yes, but you may be out of luck. I found a thread with people saying they are not getting the game to work here. They are on the 64 bit version of Win7 though, so maybe it is more difficult for them than you. I have the 64 bit one here, so if you do there as well it could make things easier. You can also make sure your video card drivers are up to date since they may not have been written for Win7, but Vista from where you upgraded. Also make sure you have the newest patch for the version of UW you are using. I cant remember off the top of my head, but if there is a windowed mode for UW to run in, you could try that as well.
