dude were my vc 0 Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 FOR the last 2 days i have trying to get Vice city to work on my computer, it does not load at all, it does nothing only a little spinning disk appears next to the mouse for about a second thats it, i have updated all my drivers and reinstalled vice city twice, also heard people talking about deleting gta_vc.set but i dont have that file is something wrong with my gta disks. I have not got the game to work once. Any help would be greatfull. and i even tryed to update my gtavc.exe with that patch but it did not work becuase its said its a wrong version, and before you accuse me NO its not a warez version, i got from a game shop and it was algit purchase. Also i have tryed everything on the rockstar page, but still nothing but the installation works fine. gta 3 worked fine on my system. Any help would be greatfull. And also please dont ban me for this but i even tryed a no cd patch JUST TO SEE IF IT WAS MY CD DRIVE, i it still did not work just a black screen for about a second and back to the desktop. there is no error messages at all nothing with or with out the no cd patch, any suggestions would be great. my specs are: p3 800mhz 128 ram geforce 2 fx 400 sound balster pci 128 win 98 (fully updated) ANYONE PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HELP ME, ITS KILLING ME Link to post Share on other sites

NightHawk_2003 0 Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Here's the fix! Had the same problem b4. Only thing U have to do is go 2 the My Documens folder and open the GTA Vice City User Files. In there U must del the corrupted "gta_vc.set" and everything will be allright. Link to post Share on other sites
dude were my vc 0 Posted July 11, 2003 Author Share Posted July 11, 2003 Isomeone already told me to this but i dont have the "gta_vc.set" anywhere, my gta vc user files folder is empty and i think this is becuase i have not yet got it to start yet. thanks for the advice is most welcome, but does anyone else have a solution that i could try.
