GTA Forever Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Hi dears, I would like to ask you for help, I've bought a new HP laptop with Windows Vista Hime Premium and 128 MB dedicated and it's very powerful. The problem is that GTA SA gets stuck so much, not during the gameplay but when I press the ESC button to see for example the map or the status or anything else. I've ascribed this problem to some problems with Windows Vista in general. Sometimes, I decide to change my windows to XP. Anyway, could you please help me get rid of this problem?? Ta All what I need is a clarification and thankya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Do_Not_Fear_cause_I'm_here Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 If I were you, I would try to do what you want to try. Because, if that laptop gets fucked up for some reason, I have lots of reasons to blame me of it. Time goes by so think of what you do dude.

Ta All what I need is a clarification and thankya I'm not sure about compatibility issues with Vista and GTASA, but maybe if you try setting the compatibility mode to 2000/XP in the SA executable, it may work. Otherwise, downgrade to XP - Vista sucks a lot when it comes to performance; too many cosmetic knick-knacks with little consideration to the user's real needs...

GTA Don Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 And try turning your settings down, if you haven't got a good video card. But yeah, like Huck said; Vista is way too slow and takes up all your resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Do_Not_Fear_cause_I'm_here Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Well I installed it a month ago and it worked fine. Except, when I downgraded it, GTA:SA can't load. So I had to play in Version 2.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
