kitcer Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 (edited) Hello Everyone! First and foremost, everything works perfectly on my desktop computer. I have Vice City, and im having some trouble. I downloaded the GTA Vice Ultimate Trainer made by LithJoe a few days ago, after installing VC on my Windows Vista laptop. I only use it for the garage editor. Anyways, in order to use the garage editor, you need to load up your save file, and then Alt + Tab out of the game, to the program, and then edit the garage. On my desktop computer (Win XP), I edit the garage, Alt + Tab back to the game, and it takes me to the Pause menu. I can then simply goto the selected garage and get my new car. With my laptop however, when I Alt + Tab back, I come to the Pause Menu, and hit resume... poof. I get a black screen, and I cant Alt + TAb out of the game. I have to use Ctrl Alt Del and select the task manager, then kill the gta-vc.exe process. I dont know why it does this. I even tryed using it in compatability mode for XP, and it doesnt do anything. I tryed setting my vista settings to classical, and nada. I have tryed numorous other things/remedys but nothing seems to work. Any help here would be very helpful. Sorry if I didnt format this properly, but im in a hotel room with a head ache. Thanks in advance, Kitcer PS. The game works fine otherwhys. I know some people have been having GFX problems with Vista, but its good for me. EDIT: Ill read (if)any replys in about an hour or two. Im bored, so Ill play it as-is for a while.

Urbanoutlaw Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Vista is still new & it's probably a compatibility issue w/ the trainer. Your best bet is to see if LithJoe has a Vista Version. Try looking for similar topics in the VC Modding forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urbanoutlaw Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I think Linux GTA is the Holy Grail for some of us. A little competition wouldn't hurt MS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Actually Cedega/Wine and GTAVC runs fine. Google Cedega and see what I mean. Oh and yeah Vista's a waste of hard drive space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, Chris, Vista equals pure and absolute crap. Bill Gates did nothing but steal everybody else's innovations and stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitcer Posted July 8, 2007 Author Share Posted July 8, 2007 SOLVED! I dont know why the hell I didnt try this before What I normally do on my desktop comp. is just ALT + TAB out of the game while still playing it. It works on the desktop, with XP but not on my Laptop with Vista (yes I know it sucks so stfu already ). I just tried pausing the game first, then ALT +TABing to the garage editor... Works Perfectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
