Problem is solved, THX ALOT buddy, finally i can play the game again and have some uber fun. The soultion was as u suggested, deactivating one of the core's while running the game. This can be done by starting the game, multi tasking out in windows, open up the Windows Task Manager, find gta_sa.exe, right click it and choose Set Affinity, and deaktivate CPU1 so that only CPU0 is running it. Again thx alot for the help. Ducky

Nop didn't help :/ Will try and search a bit more about the subject, but i can't seem to find any info about this problem. I was thinking of editing the "gtasa.set" file to manually set a frame limit, but i think it's encrypted, as i can't make head's or tails of it in either notepad or wordpad. Maybe open it in a hex editor? I will try that later. I'll keep you updated.

Thx for the welcome Hmm maybe my frame rate limiter is broken then somehow? As it is turned on... Running it on a 24" lcd aswell at 1900*1200 resolution*32bits depth Anti antalizing is turned on and set to 3, drawing distance set to max and all other settings set to max / highest. I was playing with the idea that my computer must be to fast, but i didn't think that kind of mailfunction was "possible" anymore, tought game developers tought of such things ( that's prolly why the frame modifier is there thou ) but it dosn't seem to work for me :/ Only time i can ever remember encountering an error like this was when i waws playing around with an amiga emulator long long ago and playing old games, solved it with downloading a cpu slowdown tool, but it seems kinda daft trying that for this, as it's prolly the fps ( gfxcard ) and not the cpu that does this? or am i wrong here? thx for taking the time to help me. Any other suggestions to what might solv it? As i really miss the game Ducky i mean jeez, to think one can build a pc that's to fast for games today :/ hihi PS! i saw your a fan so here's a little strofe for ya From a battle I've come To a battle I ride Blazing up to the sky Chains of fate Hold a fiery stride I'll see you again when I die

Would first like to take the time to say hi to everyone, im new to this site, but spent the last hour looking through it, i really like it. I've played most GTA games out there, on several different consolls but have found that i like most to play it on pc, for some reason i find it better controlling the movement and generally better gameplay. Anyways, i have a wierd bug/error as stated. I've been playing San Andreas on my off time for fun, on and off for the last couple of months, it all went smoothly with never any problem. Then i builth myself a new pc, and after that the game has become unplayble. The problem is once i start the game and load my save game ( or start a new game ) everything is speeding out of control. All the cars and ppl are moving like 10 times as fast as they should, I have no chance of controlling my character, if i get into a car or bike and start speeding down the highway all cars will eventually dissapear ( if im able to hold the car on the road for that long ) but the minutte i stop 40 - 50 cars show up and start crashing into eachother. If im standing at a junction, facing one way, cars are speeding bye in unbelivable speeds, the minutte i turn around they start piling up in a huge crash. It's like the game is going so fast it can't control the game mechanics or something i dunno. Old pc spec: P4 3GHz lga 775 cpu 1GB DDR2 (6000 something ) ATI Radeon x800 Asus P5AD2 ( motherboard ) New pc spec: AMD AM2 4600+ ( Dual Core ) 2GB DDR2 ( 8500 ) Nvidia GeForce 7950 with 1GB DDR3 Asus M2N32 SLI-deluxe ( motherboard ) I used the same hardrive a Raptor 10000rpm's disk, it's only the 4 things stated above that was changed, oh yes and a powersupply ( Seasonic 650W ) but i can't seem to think that will ahve anything to do with it. Has anyone ever experiensed something like this? I have tried reinstalling the game aswell, seeing i did a full format of my computer when i installed the new parts. Any help is much appritiated, seeingi really miss the game very much :/ Ducky
