.:Shady:. 0 Posted June 24, 2003 Share Posted June 24, 2003 I installed the game just fine. It loads up, plays the intro, and I start the game. About 8 seconds later, it crashes. Specs: -Win 2000 Pro w/Service Pack 3 -Radeon 9000 -AMD Athlon 1.1 Ghz -44x CD-Rom drive Link to post Share on other sites

Superfly. 0 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Have you tried the latest patch? Link to post Share on other sites
Citrux 0 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 That patch just fixes graphics corruption. Doesn't sound like he has any. Link to post Share on other sites
.:Shady:. 0 Posted June 26, 2003 Author Share Posted June 26, 2003 OHH! Never mind! I fixed it! thank god... All I did was install WinXP over Win2000 and it works fine. Well, it's a little slow, but I don't know how to fix the frame rate problems . Iff someone could help me with that, I'd greatly appreciate it. BTW, what's wrong with my username???

Citrux 0 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Shady, man I totally am with you. The radeon 9000 mobility has problems with the frames in gta3 but in vice city it runs smooth like butter. Tell me if you find out how to fix it. Link to post Share on other sites
Knightmare 7 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Have you turned the frame limiter on/off in the options??? Link to post Share on other sites
.:Shady:. 0 Posted June 26, 2003 Author Share Posted June 26, 2003 Have you turned the frame limiter on/off in the options??? Yeah, I tried it with and without. It really doesn't make much of a difference... EDIT: I'm thinking about OCing my Radeon and Athlon, but I'm not sure I know how to do it-plus I'm a little scared of burning my stuff up! I have a couple of big fans in my comp, but I'm not sure if it's enough... Link to post Share on other sites
GTA3Freak-2001 22 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 You didn't say how much ram you have, if you don't have much then getting more would help with your frame rate. Link to post Share on other sites
