benjd Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Running version 2 X1650 Soundblaster Fatility Platinum Windows XP Clean Install - All drivers patched up to date 3 gb ram 3 ghz processor Purchased Game Okay the problem is...I recently formatted my computer. After the format I have installed GTA San Andreas 2nd Edition. Was previously working on this same computer before a format. My problem: I ride the bike to the house to start off the first mission. I go in the house and we exit...we get in the car and...sit there until I press a button then we skip forward to where we meet the people at the graveyard then get on the bikes. As I am suppose to get on the bike..I get asked if I want to drive, the same audio from the first "get in the car" stuck scene. I get on the bike and ride with everyone - but the car who is suppose to chase us doesn't show up - so the leader stops riding halfway through the ride and nothing else happens. I can get past this by killing myself and doing the sequence again. The car shows up the 2nd time. However, after I do the barbershop sequence - I walk out the door and the guy comments on my hair - then we freeze. Only way out now is to ctrl-alt-delete the game. I have attempted running in Win 98 mode, nothing changes. I am running without a any other programs running so there are not conflicts. I have deleted and reinstalled everything I can think of. Any suggestions? Thanks! Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/354988-first-mission-gang-fails-to-show-up/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girish Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Did you delete the set file from the User Files folder? Try reducing your hardware acceleration. Control Panel > Display > Settings > Advanced > Troubleshoot. 3 ghz processor Which processor?

benjd Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 I did try deleting the set file (as well as reinstall with nuking anything I could find GTA-related). I have a Pentium 4 processor. The game did run properly on this machine before I reinstalled Windows. I have tried reducing the acceleration and this didn't work.

benjd Posted June 7, 2008 Author Share Posted June 7, 2008 I was able to fix the problem by going nuclear and reinstalling windows. Thanks for the advice.
