Hi there -

I recent ally upgraded and the game just won't load. Like you will just double click on the sa.exe and it just won't load nothing happens. Nothing in task manager, just nothing!

 

*Edit*

I updated to v1.0.1 and this time the game actually loaded but then it crashes and gives me the error:

user posted image

 

Yes I do own legit SA, on pc and PS2. So don't ask.

 

My upgraded pc is: AMD Athlon 6000+ GeForce 8800 ultra 4gb DDR2+ @ 1000mhz Dual channel

 

* Operating system (XP users: be sure to mention if you have SP1 or SP2) - I have SP2

 

I think it is a hardware thing. I just felt like playing SA thats all lol. I like it more than bioshock.

Did you try running the game in Windows 98 compatibility mode?

Yes I did. As ive been though many similar posts on this forum. I've tried most things. I think ill just give up soon lol.

By "recentally upgraded" do you mean the game worked before on that machine but after a hardware or OS upgrade it doesn't now?

 

If that's the case, make sure you delete the gta_sa.set file in your GTA San Andreas User Files folder as that file will contain information related to your previous configuration.
