[Help with win 7]

Hi all, i am new to these forums.

 

I am facing a major problem with my san andreas, which ofte crashes with NO MODS installed.     

 

My PC specs are: Intel Core i3-2348M(2.3GHz)

                             Intel HD Graphics 3000

                             2GB DDR3 Memory

                             500GB HDD

 

if i need to specify the crash, here is the crash report:

I am running SA on Windows 7 pro 64 bit, tried reinstalling MANY times, .set file removal MANY MANY times, running as admin or compatibility mode SEVERAL times, no use.  Is there any fix to this, or should i change my OS just for this game?
