You can only change to a higher screen resolution if your graphic card supports it.

 

And what about the resolutions lower than 800x600x32? Can you switch to them or is it just stuck at the same resolution?

intel xpress 128meg is a 128 mb onboard graphics card......

I know one thing for sure that it is capable of running resolutions higher than 800x600x32 ......

So try deleting the gta_sa.set file in ur GTA SanAndreas user files folder....

That will reset all settings(game automatically creates a new gta_sa.set file during next run) when u go into game the next time....

Then try going into Advanced Video Settings and changing the resolution.....

how i change it before firing up the game? game as in loading the game play? or loading the .exe?

 

If so about the .exe, wheres the notepad file that i edit?

I think Jacob's Advanced Options Fix allows you to do that doesn't it? Or is that only if you have the game running? Either way, you can't jsut edit the file in notepad, it's encoded.

Thats another way round it too !!!!!!!!!!

But I thought that maybe it is exclusively for people having 32mb graphics card as they have problems going to advanced video settings....

But I think that it'll work out for him too.......

actually i tried that

 

but when i try to click on screen size go bigger where i press 'increase' (and rebooted the game and dit it again, same thing)

 

i tried it but it didn't seem to have any effect.

 

is there any other way?

You misunderstand. Fire up San Andreas as per usual, but instead of loading a saved game or starting a new one or whatever, changing the resolution should be the first thing you do.

Hey hey people you got it all wrong!

 

When you choose your resolution PRESS ENTER!!!

 

And then it will go to that resolution.
