Yeah, tried patches without success. Also been in contact with Rockstar Games but although they've been very helpful, no cure has been found. I think I'll get more ram and try running it on vista (currently using xp/vista dual boot).

I have a problem with the game crashing with a "run out of video memory" error. It runs fine for a while, but then starts stuttering before freezing altogether. System: 3ghz dual core 2gb ram xfx nvidia 8800gt 1gb 4gb pagefile on defragged sata drive. I don't get it. I can play much more demanding games - is it a need for speed thing? I have most of the need for speed games, not usually a problem. (apart from Carbon and Underground 2 which seem to crash when in the menus). I currently am running the game at 1280x1024 using medium textures, but that only seems to extend the time before the inevitable crash. Changing resolution doesn't make any difference.

Does anyone know if GTAIV patches are cumulative, or do I need to install them one-by-one?
