Hey Strike, Just looked at your post. Although you have the minimum settings, your processor may not be powerful enough to run on medium+. It should run on low though. EDIT: Installation and everything went fine. The game loads automatically on the lowest settings possible, but it lags horribly in the cutscenes and gameplay. Definitely not playable with my card. Time to upgrade. Also, will an ATI 4670 512MB run it as well?

Thanks for the help. I'm going to purchase IV in a few hours so I will get back to you any details of how the card (with supposed 1GB) is running.

Hey everyone, Before I buy GTA IV, I just wanted to make sure my comp has ANY chance of running it. I've been reading through the thread and have seen others with X1300/X1550s and it is looking pretty grim for my Radeon card. Also wanted to make sure all my other specs are good before I upgrade the video card (if I have to). OS: Vista SP1 Processor: Pentium D 3GHz (2 CPUs) Memory: 2046MB Video Card: ATI Radeon X1300/X1550 256MB I am thinking on upgrading to a GeForce 9600GT 512MB. Should I? Also, what does this mean? I'm sure my card is 256MB. Any help would be great
