[rahul7]

I got a new computer the other day and vice city worked fine on the first day. After that it won't start at all. I can see it listed in the task manager under processes but besides that there's nothing. Please help.

Sounds strange.

 

Id uninstall the game from Uninstall programs, then re-boot and install again.

Maybe a few of the files have gone missing.

 

Try it anyway, if thats not it, im sure others will know the answer.

Consult the pinned posting requirements and consider deleting the SET file.

That could be a Vista issue. Tell us your system specs including your OS!

After you exit, or when you are still in-game?

If everything else fails, you should go for a complete re-install.

Uninstall the game from Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel.

Delete the installed folder manually, if needed.

Delete the set file from the User Files folder.

Now re-install the game.

Do you have a Geforce 8500GT video card or a nforce chipset? These are prone to this kind of problem you know.
