If you update direct x and dx you might have to not sign into or use the Rockstar Games Social Club.

I had a laptop with Vista for almost a year (sold it now). The only thing that really hindered my using it was a slightly different interface. Other than that, I really didn't notice much of a difference in day-to day operations than with XP. It ran virtual machines, etc fine.

I never understood why people WANT to join GTAF. The only advantage of a forum that size is generally quick answers to your topics. Apart from that it's bullshit. Legendary threads are lost after just one day in a mass of shitty topics started by shitty members.
At the time I joined it, it was the only GTA site I could find. I was referred to it by some friends. I didn't even know of anything but GTA forums. After that it was GTA Boards.
I was banned from GTA Forums multiple times. Usually the mods would pick a fight, and I'd be dumb and keep it going to the point that I got banned.

I'll bump this topic.
I'm always wearing jeans, usually dirty looking from working outside / on cars / lawnmowers / etc but clean. Plain Tshirt or hoodie. I rarely wear shorts in the summer.
Footwear is always workboots in the inter. If it's spring / fall, possibility of work boots but usually sneakers. The sneakers are always what I can get cheap. In the summer, I wear sneakers, sandals or go around barefoot.

Unmodded it is bullet proof? This might come in handy

I had an 8500GT and it struggled even to run San Andreas. Which version of the 8500GT do you have? (512mb, 256mb, 1GB?) The rest of your specs look fine. You have the same amount of RAM as me and a slightly better processor so it has to be the card.8600 is on the low end for this game - mine has a bit of trouble running this.
Funny, as that's the reccommended requirement. I have an ATi 3850, which is below the reccommended (slightly) and the game runs really smoothly.
Perhaps it's programs running in the background or something?

Dammit, the point/meaning/purpose of life is very simple... TO LIVE
Pretty much haha.
We are a bunch of molecules that make cells that make organs that make organ systems that make people. I think of it that way.

I think the 3rd party (to MS) are all the same in terms of speed. Web browsers themselves take little resources and computers are quick and powerful now.
I don't even have a preference anymore ... as long as i have my bookmarks I'm happy.

First try updating the game itself with the patches available from rockstar.
Next, update your video card drivers.

I backed up my save games a few weeks ago when I had to restore a backup of the game.
I put them in the same folder but I can't find them ...
How do I get them to work?

I think that one day this year when we went home at early at 10:30 (1/2 day) was because of a tornado watch, and 75 mph winds (How often does that happen up here???) It was also supposed to get down to -20 degrees Fahrenheit.
I dont recall that happening anytime within the past ... ever?
If it was going to get down to -20F, the temperature wouldn't be warm enough to begin with to even remotely cause a tornado. At MOST, the temperature would have been +30 and at that, there's simply not enough moisture in the atmosphere to make it unstable enough for a tornado.
Yes, one needs a temperature change, but from 90-70 maybe, not whatever NY gets in the winter.

I can't think what the name of it is ... but the one that is modeled after a Cadillac Brougham sedan.

Single and hating it for sure.

GTA 4 is much more realistic

Alright. I will probably end up copying the whole user profile and then sorting through it.
-
So I got a virus on the PC (Not sure where from) and it wont boot. I need to put the hard drive in an enclosure and pull the savegames off. Any suggestions as to what I have to copy over to do a backup.
-
I am having the problem that after I edit handling.dat (well rename the orignal and then save the eited one has handling.dat) that the game will not launch on the edited version. I replace it with the original and it launches.
-
I ended up doing it by driving on the straight road on the island and outrunnig the cops. Seemed like they were waiting at the pay n sprays.
-
I've done this thousands of times and I cant get it done.
The police always see me go in the pay n sprays and I can't get rid of the wanted level.
Any suggestions on this?

Overclocking wouldn't affect the memory of the video card - the memory and gpu speeds it would.
There are multiple versions of the card by different manufacturers. Some had 512, some had 256.
An Old Timer Checking In

I was chatting with a buddy about GTA and he linked me to a download on TGTAP.
Decided to check in and say hello ... it's been (literally) ages since I've been here.
Any other old members still around?
