Ok, first of all, this is a message board, not a chat room. Don't expect a reply as soon as you post and don't make 5 topics in different forums about the same thing. You are new so I will just close and delete your other topics, but next time you will be warned. As to your problem, yes, higher resolutions will slow the game down on lower-end PCs. You have a nice processor, but you also need a PCI/PCI-e/AGP graphics card. Integrated graphics suck and completely strip the PC's ability to run games. I would say buy a graphics card, then uninstall and reinstall the game.

It's because SA will crash upon the entrance of the advanced options menu with any graphics card under 32mb. You might check around the internet for a .set file with this already configured, but I would say buy a graphics card. I suggest http://www.compusa.com/products/product_in...3475&pfp=BROWSE

because I am going to be getting that, as it is the fastest standard PCI card available.

I've found this low quality .set file on gtagarage.com
